mrs may speaking outside Downing Street, never mentioned the disastrous election result. Very strange indeed, now forming a government with the dup. All well and good for her, but she needs to be more concerned with getting support from her back benches. She is obviously toxic now to the tories. Unlikely but one never knows ,would be Gerry Adams and his buddies taking seats in parliament. As they are pals with jezza and hate the dup ,if this occurs then the tories are finished.

May sucking up to more terrorists. Who'd have thunk it.

And the buzz word for this stretch of her leadership is... 'certainty'.

Laughable really. I imagine she'll be gone before the year is out. It's a certainty she won't be leading the Tories into the next election.

Yes, they may have most seats but, T. May is now a lame duck, all credibility gone and if her plan was to strengthen her bargaining position with the EU, it has backfired spectacularly.
The movers and shakers in the EU are laughing at her as well as the UK and with the disruption of another election, right in the middle of EU negotiations, who know's where we will end up.
If it wasn't such a shambles and important to all of our futures, it would be utterly hilarious.
If they make another 5 years, without another election, I'll show my on Huddersfield town hall steps.

Loving your understatement at the end of your post.

business as usual for may!

what a pointless election if there ever was one

Re: General Election 8th June : Fri Jun 09, 2017 2:15 pm  

To be fair to her she did warn us of the possibility of terrorist sympathisers being in Government if she didn't get enough votes.

The tory party will have her ousted by the end of the year.
