Theresa May needs to step down
 
I have been one of her biggest fans on it but you can not deny she has destroyed All her credibility the last few months.

Time to step down and let Boris Johnson take his deserved job

Jack_ 09-06-2017 01:48 AM

So much for 'Mutha Theresa'

She's a disgusting **** leading a disgusting party, couldn't have been more deserved

reece(: 09-06-2017 01:55 AM

Wasn't she Mutha T yesterday

These U-turns are serving her.

Brother Leon 09-06-2017 02:07 AM

She would be proud of your U-Turn.

Withano 09-06-2017 02:26 AM

I'll be honest, I think it was more their policies than her as a person

Northern Monkey 09-06-2017 03:06 AM

Terrible campaign.She didn't have to do anything and she still managed to feck it up

letmein 09-06-2017 03:42 AM

Tracey Ullman is gonna rip her a new one in two weeks on her show for the BBC like she did Sturgeon. I can't wait! How May could take a 20 point lead and **** up this badly takes some skill.

reece(: 09-06-2017 03:43 AM

Anna Soubry needs to step up!

Scarlett. 09-06-2017 04:13 AM

Thank god, I don't like many Tory leaders, but I respect them at least, Theresa didn't seem fit to lead.

Wasn't Corbyn asked to step down as Leader of the Labour Party several times due to his abysmal performance and he just wouldn't go - and here he was running for PM.

If he can get away with it anyone can.

Corbyn is strong and stable and Labour has made massive gains
May is weak and wobbly and has made a number of losses

That's all that matters at this point.

bots 09-06-2017 04:55 AM

She ran the worst campaign imaginable, she has to go

Boris? :joker:

The sad thing is a hung parliament in this time of major disruption is not a great result for the country but she only has herself to blame. Sadly we will be stuck with Corbyn now with no hope for a decent Labour leader for a while. Though I don't think this was a vote for him as much as a vote against conservative policy gaffes. Worrying times.

I was a tory voter so I can say it. She saw an opportunity to increase her majority, gambled and lost, and she has made her position untenable now in negotiating with the EU. She arrogantly brushed aside those that wanted a less harsh exit from the EU, and she has paid the price.

I've never witnessed a poorer campaign or a worse presented manifesto, she excluded all but a small inner circle from having any input, so she must now take 100% responsibility for it.

I agree with everything you've said apart from the suggestion of a less harsh Brexit. People constantly try to blur the edges of Brexit. The reality is there no such thing as a hard or soft Brexit. We voted to leave, we need to leave, we can't keep bits of it. We can seek a future trading deal but anything else is staying in some sort of EU Lite and what is the point of that?

She's clinging on by her talons

No,leave her there, she is one of Labour's best assets.
With her will she,won't she,maybe,maybe not stance on major issues.

bots 09-06-2017 09:31 AM

Anna Soubry absolutely tore May a new one early this morning.

Not only that but she was seeking solid government. She's worse off now, yet wants to stay????:conf::conf:

Doesn't make sense. :mad:

Stu 09-06-2017 09:53 AM

Some Strong & Stable support, there.

Good to see you're putting your fortunes in the human Harry Enfield sketch, next.

soubry is an idiot, always has been, she barely kept her seat. She only back stabbed may because soubry was a remainer.
May has won, she is the prime minister with 57 seat majority, the tories had a very healthy 43% of the national vote which is higher than many of tony blairs wins and many other governments... the vast majority of labours 29 seat gain came from UKIP, Lib dems, SNP

****ing Boris?!

I would have a lot more faith in the Tories without May at the helm mind. But my support means nothing given the soft spot I had for Cameron, and look how he turned out :S

Vicky. 09-06-2017 12:04 PM

I would be pretty happy with Rudd.

She's too busy demanding recounts.

Withano 09-06-2017 12:20 PM

Corbyn was told to resign by his party, and then voted to lead by his party? its not like he defiantly stayed on, he was wanted by most. May on the other hand...

UserSince2005 09-06-2017 12:24 PM

she won 44% of the vote. Larger than Blairs landslide in 97.
She is a superstar.

This is because of losses to tertiary parties though; UKIP, LibDem and SNP.

Labour are sitting on 40% of the popular vote this election, the Tories in 97 were way down at 30%. You're comparing apples with oranges here.

the truth 09-06-2017 02:51 PM

no she needs to step up now, lovely to see a female leader too

What last election?... :/ Good job he didn't who else would've stirred the social heart of the country better than him?

Things changed for him as they could for May. No one could have foreseen or would have believed that when so many wanted him to go.

Besides he was sold to the youngsters with tales of free uni fees and a lot more money in their pockets all round. Very tempting for young people who have no experience of Labour's history of broken promises. They were manipulated into voting for Labour by the Labour masses who were desperate to win.

Social heart my foot. Wish away.

This is true ,his own party wanted him gone ,he wouldn't shift and look what happened,anything can happen and people do tend to for get she won even after a poor manifesto,so no great achievement for Corbyn really,he should have walked it.
