Poor woman might have split the country and her party, but the reason for that is the fact she is doing exactly what the country voted for. |

Reports (SkyNewsHD & BBCnewsHD)
she will have the 158 votes she needs tonight. Which means she will have a year without this back stabbing. We should find out after 7PM tonight. |

Cameron is definitely the most to blame for this mess. Why she ever stepped up at that time is beyond me, it was a mess that was never going to end well.

It could also be argued that the main reasons for remaining are more geared up in policy and the long term effects on the economy, and by proxy, the people, whereas leave had the much easier and effective slogans or sound bites, such as Ł350m each week for the NHS, stop Brussels controlling our laws, and the additional xenophobic undertones to aspects of the campaign which automatically strike a chord with low-information voters and help to scare the old people that actually won the election. I partly agree with the first paragraph in that it's difficult to actually run another remain/leave election. However, the fact that circumstances have changed, and many people realise now that they were hoodwinked by the leave campaign, suggests to me that in a healthy democracy, it's important to find a way to make these kind of things work. It's easier to change course mid way, than it is to hit your destination and realise we don't want to be here.

There's been no consistent evidence that many people have changed their mind or that people now favour a second referendum. My view is that Mays deal is the only thing we have which actually shows how Brexit could be achieved relatively smoothly and delivers on the result. All other alternatives, whether it be no deal, a second vote or remaining in the EU, do not offer long term certainty and would leave many more people embittered and angry than May's deal does |

It's actually really easy to leave, it's difficult to have your cake, eat it, then leave.

Yeah, must be tough for the billionaire Lord. Ask the nursing professional using foodbanks this Christmas how this tory government is working out for them.

I doubt his decision has anything at all to do with money.

Oh yeah, i forgot that Corbyn would make him wear a yellow magen David, and march him off to a death camp quicker than you could say "you're fired".

Remembering Kerry

Quote:
However he didn't. As for Alan Sugar, another one like our PM deluded with power. He's so deluded he thinks he can fire someone before he even hires them. It's a pity the sick and disabled don't have the means to leave this Country to avoid this government's sledgehammer taken to them. I hope this PM loses tonight, I doubt she will but one thing she'll be certain of, there will be a growing number of her own MPs, plotting against her for another year. Whether she comes through big or small. If she then miraculously got this deal through Parliament too. Then the DUP are likely to pull their support for her government as their issue is more with her than the Conservative party. She will then hopefully be stuck between a rock and a hard place, deservedly so in my view. |

Imagine in ten year time somebody will make a documentry about May and our kids will ask if she was on drugs or just pig-****-stupid. And we’ll all be like idfk as we wave burgundy passports and surplus cash with Corbyns face on in our perfect health

[A total of 171 Tory MPs have publicly said they will continue
to back her as leader - but as the ballot is secret, they could vote differently behind closed doors. The party has 317 seats, meaning the prime minister needs 159 votes to gain a majority. MPs will vote between 6pm and 8pm tonight, and the result is expected to emerge at about 9pm.] https://news.sky.com/story/mps-revea...se-pm-11578536 Last edited by arista; 12-12-2018 at 03:54 PM. |
