bickster Posted November 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted November 15, 2018 So if the ERG force a leadership election and they lose, that means we're stuck with May unless she resigns for a least a year. Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right? You are indeed correct. I still can't work out why she didn't just engineer a confidence vote via her allies three months ago, win it easily and buy herself a year. But then it does seem that planning isn't really her strong suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted November 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted November 15, 2018 More resignations expected before the day is out and there's now a press conference called by May at 5. Right, what can she do to survive to tomorrow? That is all she is good at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems a little ungrateful, after she was mug enough to take on a role that could only end in failure. Who can they get to replace her? My money's on Chuka Umunna. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Monty Python Black Knight of Politics. She is at "I'll bite your ankle" stage at the moment. Shouting is out unfortunatley as she keeps flipping her head backwards and facing the wrong way when her chin moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I look forward to a Boris premiership, if only so that several senior tories will be appointed to the Johnson Cabinet, which is what I'm going to start calling the girlfriend's, ahem, private drawer.

It's more a case of who is stupid enough right now There's a dearth of "talent" anyway, which is why these imbeciles have been in the limelight so long 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno tbh , they might view it as he did them a huge favour by taking out Boris last time around He's a Brexiter who seems to have got behind May and thus might be a middle ground between the extremes of a Mogg or a Boris I'm not seeing a huge pool of talent to pick from tbh so he stands a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villakram Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Darth Gove. Above all others, he is the one you do not want to have real power. You will pay a private company to use your own toilet if he get in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
