Boris is NOT running

[ManOfSussex]

It was only 4 years ago when Boris was the hostess with the mostess at the London Olympics. It was such a happy time when we all seemed to get on which other in this country. Never mind.

I don't think Boris is running, he is however running away.

Very much like Cameron then.

 

[Ernest]

Absolute farce now, the country is in a complete shambles, at least the Tories are now showing they're completely unelectable which is some consolation

 

[Seagull58]

Well obviously it won't because the current Government will go when Cameron get's his P45 and it will be up to the new leader to form a Government and it 'may' be that one that triggers article 50,

The current government as in there will not be a general election.

Nobody knows anything anymore. This is unprecedented.

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

It will be Theresa May.

Her speech was very statesperson like this morning.

Was it more statesperson like than Angela Eagle's, who was last seen on television crying?

Rudderless, leaderless, no direction.

Good job that we've had enough of experts though.

Mayor of London is pretty much a figurehead though. The buffoon had negligible effect on the success or otherwise of the London Olympics.

Not running? I'd say that's exactly what he's doing

Except they're not and, in any case they're in for the next 4 years.

Just think we could have an all female combination of Theresa May, Angela Merkel and Marine Le Pen shaping the future of this country.

And Nicola Sturgeon?

 

[Hamilton]

As for Brexit terms, I can see May having to accept controls on immigration for loss of access to the 'free market'. We all knew that this is what Brexit means (well, those of us awake knew). She knows that. Perhaps the EU folk will take pity on us, recignise May as a good egg, and help us out. I sincerely hope so.

Agree with you entire post. It's a strange day. I never thought I would ever be plumping for Theresa May. What has the world come to?

On your comment above. Agree this is a very likely outcome if the Tories aren't to tear themselves apart. And, when that happens, that's when the shit really will hit the markets fan. Right now, in the absence of Article 50 negotiations markets are hoping we stay in the single market. They're thinking, OK the UK has been stupid in leaving, but they aren't going to be really nuts and leave the single market. Are they? Are they?!

It was Britain that made the Olympics great. It was not the Olympics that made Britain great.

Next time I need to see my GP I'll go and see my favourite barmaid instead. Oh hang on, she's Latvian that won't work..............................

True. I enjoyed the first week of the Olympics more than I've enjoyed the last 7 days though.

 

[ManOfSussex]

And Nicola Sturgeon?

Sturgeon thinks she's an expert in my opinion. We don't want her sort, thank-you very much.

True.

For the love of Jerusalem artichokes, turn it in man!

We were talking about females, not little boys.

Did those feet in ancient time, actually walk upon England's mountains green? Either way, we need a messiah, so long as they're not an expert and I should know because I've followed a few
