Rodders Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 yeah, the idea of mcvey, boris, raab, davis, mogg etc in charge is vomit inducing. But then again, seeing one of those gutless feckers realise they can't deliver their nonsense would be amusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Who could be foolish enough to grasp the poison chalice? If I were someone in with a shout, I'd want the job when seeking reelection in a few years. Whoever takes it now is going down in history as one of the Brexit Bastards. They won't be in the job for long, and they won't get a damned thing accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted December 12, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2018 Yeah she'll survive it. She hasn't completed her purpose yet for many of them to gun for her. Supposedly there's a bunch of ranking members who want the chalice anyway though - Javid was mentioned as throwing his hat in the ring asap if given the chance. Power prevents you seeing straight it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 May has failed so why should she get the axe. Let her take us out with her crappy deal and let her go down as the shambles prime minister who ruined this country. Then let the next mug come in whether that's Cornyn or gove.

Not sure there would ever be a world in which the Tories would vote for Remain while Labour vote to leave.

Davkaus Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 If she wins, it leaves us in a very interesting position. She doesn't have the support to pass any legislation, and there aren't enough numbers to get rid of her. She'll be trapped until the next ge.

Well the respective leaders are an ideological Remainer (May) and an ideological Leaver (Corbyn) but you're right, it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
