Theresa May stepping down as MP at the next GE.

OldFrill

She did what was right for her party, not the country. She made Boris foreign secretary - Boris knighted her husband. Thick as thieves.

Yep, all very honourable and all very Tory!

Stepping down along with a lot of other Tory MPs in advance of the impending deluge.

Agreed Whitewave but I was trying to be nice by glossing over her time as Home Secretary!

Her time at the Home Office is hardly filled with honour.

I liked her, she is a woman of integrity, something in short supply with so many politicians, I wish her well and feel sure she will continue to work for her community as she has always done.

I would never vote for any Tory, however, I am full of admiration for Teresa May, she seems to be one of the few honourable members of Parliament.

She was to the Police what Thatcher was to the miners - dreadful.

She was to the Police what Thatcher was to the miners - dreadful.

She was also the architect behind the "hostile environment" dished out to foreign workers. Many of those 'undesirables' were of course busy supporting our NHS and other important institutions. Shameful.

She was the least worse of the last 5 PMs, but the bar is pretty low. She was an awful Home Sec- cutting police, Windrush, not visiting Grenfell etc

….and history will treat her far more kindly than those who followed her…

She’s made some pretty amazing speeches in parliament over the past few years. She had a torrid time as PM with Johnson thwarting everything she tried to do. Having said that, much as I’ve found myself respecting her more recently it’s only because she’s one of the few remaining old school Conservatives ( eg Ken Clark, Dominic Grieve) withConservative values and I do tend to forget that she had been an awful Home Secretary presiding over the reduction of police numbers amongst other things.

I also liked her, I didn't always like her politics but I still wish she had managed to get her soft Brexit through. She had a pretty impossible job.

Rather sad, as common sense and principles seem to be missing in the House of Commons.

I wish her a long and happy retirement if that's what she decides to do.

I liked her - she seemed like a decent person. Unlike those that followed.

I hope she re-appears in some other national/european/international form of politics/organisation. She has a lot of experience and common sense to offer.

She did what was right for her party, not the country. She made Boris foreign secretary - Boris knighted her husband. Thick as thieves.

She probably got fed up with having to wade through the ordure that has engulfed the party and the appalling mediocrity and dishonesty of most members of the current cabinet.

I wish her a happy retirement.

Honour? Surely not - she admitted running through a farmer’s wheat fields as a teenager 😱. (Joke! )

I had a lot of time for her and she understood about the Just About Managing folks which is more than can be said for leaders that followed.

So many people have said she hasn't got a sense of humour, but she made Johnson her foreign secretary.

I actually like the woman, but not her politics and look forward to hearing some views from Maidenhead constituents. At least she appears to be honest.

I was genuinely sad for her when she was pictured on her own and looking lonely at a European meeting to the delight of the press. Bad management by her staff.

I too wish her a happy retirement.

She's one of the few tory politicians that I thought was honourable and honest.
She deserves a happy retirement.

An woman of honour

I don’t agree with her politics but she is an honourable person and always did what she thought was right for the country, rather than for personal gain, I’m sorry she’s going.
