If there's an election now whoever wins will get the blame. I doubt if the Tories would put up much of a fight.
There should have been a cross party Brexit group sorting it all out, no point scoring and infighting, just getting on with it.
I agree with you, brexit was never party political both big parties have leavers and remainers which is part of the reason it's all such a mess.

Re: Any bets on whether May is pushed or jumps and when???

It must be quite upsetting to be Prime Minister and know that history will not be kind to you. But she has really been a poor leader and an equally poor Home Secretary, perhaps it was a mistake to politics her career choice?

Who next for the Tory leadership and what of the alternative Jeremy Corbyn, god help us?

Hi

With the state of things at the moment we are between a rock and a hard place.

We may well end up with Corbyn and Marxism, not something I am looking forward to.

I believe the Tories will win the next election, but not with May as leader.

Yesterday when they were all filing in to see her reminded me of a day in 1990 when it all went so wrong for Mrs Thatcher. Was almost to the day of the anniversary too I think it was about the 20th of November her ministers went to see her.

I remember it so well Julie darlin' - t'was following the 'nasty party' conference that year - events began to unfold in October 1990. Coincidentally, the big 'drama' on television at that time was "The House of Cards". Drama and reality were running side-by-side - it was brilliant !!!

I remember it as rather bitter sweet I wanted her gone badly, but seeing her go I felt so sorry for her. They weren't kind.
