If there is a general election imminently they will dump May as quick as they could, do you think they dare have a campaign with her fronting it again ???

Corbyn is all the Boys and Girls in Blue need for an election campaign.

And all because of May's Vanity Election where she wanted a " Mandate from the people"...…. and they gave her one !

Not sure it will work again, it didn't work that well last time, oh and this time we even have the UN saying what despicable and evil policies have been employed by the Tories for the last 10 years. What a fantastic start line for the party of law and order and financial probity.

To me they are both a bag of shite. Self promoting and full of empty promises. We're in a pickle, ain't that a fact.

Plenty will deny it! But I basically agree - she was a shite Home Secretary, but as PM is probably doing the best job possible in the circumstances, the circumstances being that all sides are trying to hinder her and stitch her up every step of the way.

Cameron held the referendum and then when he didn't like the result he walked away. She picked up the pieces and has had to face constant opposition and isolation from EU leaders. It seems everyone wants to stab her in the back or hinder her but what solutions have they put forward. More like a nest of vipers than a cabinet.

Hilarious.

Just the night before, Labour should have defeated the Tories for Corbyn's own Child Poverty amendment as they had numbers on their side, but they still lost. Remarkably, Corbyn himself didn't even turn up to vote.

Peston's take down of this ridiculous situation is worth reading.

The current Labour leadership literally could not organise a piss up in a brewery.

^^^ You'll probably have to click through to read the full chain of tweets that expose Corbyn's utter incompetence.

Weren't you paying attention at the last general election? That is exactly what the Tories assumed back then.

They conducted the most arrogant campaign I've ever seen where May didn't feel the need to appear on a leaders TV debate and all any Tory said was "if you don't vote for us you'll get that nasty Jeremy Corbyn". It was pathetic - that is no way to pander to undecided people looking for a reason to vote Conservative.

Agree with all that.

And Corbyn still lost.

Correct. It shows two things. a) How arrogant and lazy the Tories were and b) despite this, what little stomach there is in this country for a government led by naive Corbyn and that utter fckwit McDonnell.

Exactly this.

I've said it before but I really genuinely doubt we'll see two less competent front benches in my lifetime.

Why, oh why wasn’t this dealt with, with an all parties strategy instead of this endless political point scoring. It’s about the long term future of the country not some short term political careers.
