Weird to think that we left the EU due to part of it being unelected and now are going to have 4'ish years of an unelected PM, especially after the fuss that was kicked up when Gordon Brown tried it.
I guess the only question you have to ask is whether this is Cruz and Trump or Hilary and Trump - it certainly isn't '08 Obama or even '12 Obama.
May sounds like the sensible choice but her attacks on civil liberties time after time really suggests she isn't: https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...tory-candidate
Well perhaps its time for a new broom, interestingly when we see a world seeking broader choices as their leaders , we see the Tories once again at the forefront of women's power , and Labour never really committing to that choice , one might argue "what liberty ?? ".Originally Posted by surge
Women have liberty, perhaps none have been suitable in the past? I don't think they should hire women just because they are women.
Both seem a bit loopy, please can we bring back Dodgy Dave? At least we know he's only lying when he speaks.
In my experience their have been some very capable Labour dedicated women MP's , the party simply did not select them , strangely they probably had more than the Tories on pure head count over the years.
If a man and a woman go for a job like that and have exactly the same qualifications and are both suitable which would you choose?In my experience their have been some very capable Labour dedicated women MP's , the party simply did not select them , strangely they probably had more than the Tories on pure head count over the years.
The one with the lovely big round t ..
Ooops.
No that's not right is it. Is it? .. no .. I was going to say qui .. ffs .. yes, qualifications .
Pheww .. I think I got away with that ..
A woman just for a refresh ,as the blokes have made a right pigs ear of it really
And pictures exist apparently.
If you take your mind off the boobs for a moment you will see I said they have exactly the same qualifications.
Out of interest, excluding your mum, how many women have you lived with?

There will be none of that once our "Matron" May takes over , she believes in the injustice of animals , and these lurid conversations /suggestions will be taken down from social networking sites .
Theresa May's pitch is getting very interesting. She is the Tory establishment candidate and the one with experience, but she doesn't appear to be playing it as safe as she could:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36760953
Outlining her plans to reform corporate governance, she will hit out at the way non-executive directors who are supposed to provide oversight of the way firms are run often come from the same "narrow social and professional circles" as the executive team and "the scrutiny they provide is just not good enough".
She will say: "So if I'm prime minister, we're going to change that system - and we're going to have not just consumers represented on company boards, but workers as well."
Outlining some of the social issues she wants to address, Mrs May will say: "Right now, if you're born poor, you will die on average nine years earlier than others.
"If you're black, you're treated more harshly by the criminal justice system than if you're white. If you're a white, working-class boy, you're less likely than anybody else to go to university. If you're at a state school, you're less likely to reach the top professions than if you're educated privately.
"If you're a woman, you still earn less than a man. If you suffer from mental health problems, there's too often not enough help to hand. If you're young, you'll find it harder than ever before to own your own home."
She will say that "fighting these injustices is not enough", and add: "If you're from a working-class family, life is just much harder than many people in politics realise."
"These are the reasons why, under my leadership, the Conservative Party will put itself - completely, absolutely, unequivocally - at the service of working people," Mrs May will add.
Carry on like that an Len McCluskey will be campaigning for her!
Seems like May is set to become PM without a grassroots vote. I love it when a plan comes together, this whole thing seems like an obvious setup, starting with May sitting on the fence during the referendum. What we are witnessing is the "Tory Plan B" that was formulated long before the referendum. Notice how conveniently all the Brexit campaigners fell by the wayside at key moments. It will be interesting to see what happens now.

Theresa May it is then http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36763208
What is it with Brexiters an their total lack of stomach to deal with the mess they've made?
25% of MP support, but she was ahead with the grassroots supporters at local level, who are the ones who decide who is PM.
Incidentally, the local Conservative Associations don't like Theresa May much, hence they were never going to be allowed to vote on this issue.
Theresa May vows to put Conservatives 'at service' of working people

It's all scripted mate, everybody is just playing their part
I think it's a case of "Oh crap, we've won, I didn't see that happening, now what do we do? I know, let someone else sort it out"
This may be what the Tory press and the BBC want you to believe, but the vast majority of people on Twitter and other social media aren't buying it, they are calling it for exactly what it is - a stitch-up.
Here is one of the more friendly viewpoints ..
"Theresa May genuinely just won a leadership election by standing still and letting everyone else fall on the sword of their own ineptitude."
Ledsome knows she cant win? The local Conservative Associations would have put her in power, and that is why it is not being allowed to happen. They are all in on it
I'm not entirely sure they could've predicted the country voting 'Leave'.This may be what the Tory press and the BBC want you to believe, but the vast majority of people on Twitter and other social media aren't buying it, they are calling it for exactly what it is - a stitch-up.

I'm not talking about that, post-referendum the Brexiteers have been purposely falling on their swords, as per the Plan B
