If you're thinking there's not much to choose between Fat Prick Boris and Corbyn? Then those endless column inches of Corbyn bashing really did a job. There isn't a good option in either red or blue teams, but it's clear which of these two has a greater good in mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an absolute plum. Nobody seems to have made an adequate gif of Sansa telling Edmure to sit the **** down yet, so people can just imagine it for themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it's time I confessed my crime to VT as I feel partly responsible for his rise. When I used to work in Islington, his route to work would see him regularly cycling past my office window. Although even then (ten years ago) I hated to the man, I did nothing to act on my impulses to take him out. I deeply regret that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's hard to get it from from that description but I believe it was Jeremy Corbyn ..of course if you didn't get it from that fabricated description then you are just brainwashed by the media but fear not there will soon be a space at a correction facility with your name on it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're actually thinking of Nigel Farage. And he might as well be the Tory party already given where we are. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterms Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I missed the tears at the end of her speechlet. When she was listing what she claims as her achievements, and included the response to Grenfell, I had to turn it off. Unspeakable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I'm not as clued up on politics as I probably should be. Surely it's not right for the 2nd PM in a row to get the position without being voted into power by the public? Surely a general election has to take place.

It isn't ideal really but technically we don't vote for a Prime Minister so this can happen. I strongly suspect we will end up with an election soon anyway.

Leaving your knowledge and political processes aside for a moment, I agree with the sentiment. But if it's not 'right' and that's clear to people, why would we continue to do the same things and expect different results? A General Election without any real reform just perpetuates the madness. Same shit different day and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to May, she has faced the electorate as PM when she called that 2017 snap election. That went well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
