She has obviously been aiming for a Hotel California Brexit all along.(you can check out but you can never leave!).
I am especially disgusted with her two latest escapades.. The first that she went cap in hand to see Mrs Merkel to disclose and discuss her white paper before even presenting it to her cabinet at Chequers. Even prior to the meeting, when one of her cabinet suggested a change to one of the points in the paper, her reply was “No, we cannot change it because it has already been approved by Mrs Merkel”. That says it all for me. Our Prime Minister is, and seems to have always been, in the pocket of the EU.
The second was the disgraceful way Brexit Ministers were treated at Chequers. To disrespectfully have their phones taken from them as they entered Chequers, Taxi cards blatantly placed on the table solely for their benefit, threats that if, after reading the white paper, they walked, they could walk the two miles to the entrance to Chequers where the media were in waiting and catch a taxi, as their ministerial cars would be removed! plus, they were informed (no doubt by her Rasputin chief adviser, Olly Robbins), that, if they resigned, there were plenty of MP’s waiting in line to fill their shoes.
I don’t know whether she thought she had it in the bag by Saturday morning, but she should think again. For 2 years Leave voters have been the “silent majority”, taking every form of abuse for wanting and then winning the democratic right to regain our long lost independence.
We rightly then expected our Prime Minister to duly deliver on her manifesto promise to leave with all red lines intact. We should have known better.
Posters on here may make every excuse on the planet to excuse her treachery. I certainly will not. She puts on the airs of being a Christian, Church-going, trustworthy Leader but, I now hold her in even less esteem than odious Tony Blair. (and I loathe him!).
All I can do now is hope that the Tory rebels will successfully sabotage her treacherous white paper. Even better, kick her out! As far as I am concerned,she has demeaned her office.
We have been utterly betrayed.
