Maybot Malfunction On Newsnight

[Gromit]

This Daily Mail report on the car crash interview Theresa May did on Newsnight is scathing.

I don't think I have ever seen the Mail so vicious toward a Conservative Prime Minister.

After reading that, there is little doubt that May is toxic, a lame duck and a dead woman walking.

Do you agree that she will now be removed sooner, rather than later?

[Zacs-Master]

Eddie, I think I'm with you on that theory.

TM was a poor choice for PM, as home secretary she was a low profile politician, during the sexual abuse enquiry ( which is still going on )she appointed THREE chairperson's,, two were deemed unsuitable because of there " closeness" to the establishment her appointee came from new Zealand, stayed a short time returned home without an explanation !!!! So any home secretary who was so inadequate in that situation why o why would anyone think she would be a decent PM.?

[Garaman]

I don’t like witch hunts, and there seems to be one going on here, and I like even less how some left-wingers are using the disaster for their own purposes. I don’t either like the style of interviewing in the clip, but I do think the PM should have been able to handle it better. I do think that she should have gone to the site earlier though, and I think most leaders would have done.

I thought she was the right choice as leader, but I don’t anymore. She isn’t making good decisions and that doesn’t bode well. Sad to say it, but the sooner the party gets a new leader the better for the party as doubts on her ability to lead aren’t going to go away any time soon.

Makes one wonder what the aim was when the Tory power makers arranged her success than. Because clearly it would be naive to think the reasons the other contenders fell by the wayside was realistic. They were all ridiculous fails.

[tamborine]

Hardly abuse mickey but youre stirring up an unwarrented vendatta, as the crowds at Kton town hall. Grenfell was an unforeseen calamity & not TMs making

[Old_Geezer]

... success, then.

[Zacs-Master]

OG, the Govt didn't want Brexit. Elect a strongly remain PM who's clearly not up to the job, persuade her to call a snap election, result....a weakened Brexit position making a soft Brexit much more likely (i.e. Hardly a Brexit at all).

[mikey4444]

Tambo....I haven't suggested that the fire was down to Mrs May, and I challenge you to find somewhere that I have.

But, yes, you are resorting to personal abuse, rather than debate the issue in question.

[Old_Geezer]

No one could have, that early, reasonably predicted the large fall in popularity. Unless the disgraced advisors were "planted", and I think that's beyond belief. Some may look upon it as serendipity.

[mikey4444]

Other will look upon it as arrogance and stupidity OG.

And she is still digging that hole ever deeper.

[Zacs-Master]

I disagree. Senior conservative members knew May would appear as a weak option resulting in the lead they had reducing.

[mikey4444]

Zacs...why would "senior Tories" deliberately engineer a near-defeat ?

She didn't have to call the Election in the first place. It seems that they allowed her to throw away that nice safe majority that she had ?

I must away to work now !

[anneasquith]

Nor is she equipped politically or personally to negotiate brexit,

[EDDIE51]

People still keep bringing up the fire. While it was a terrible tragedy that should never have happened that is NOT what this thread is about! It is about Mrs May's unsuitability as party leader and PM.
Her actions after the fire further confirm her unsuitability and reinforce yet again my theory that she was 'set up to fail' at Brexit and as party leader.

[Zacs-Master]

Mikey, I've already explained that. To engineer a soft Brexit. Please keep up otherwise debating with you becomes hard work for us all. As evidenced elsewhere.

[mikey4444]

One last point.

May is hardly some Infant of the Spring. She has been the Home Secretary for years, arguably one of the hardest jobs in British politics. She should have known how tough it would get, and yet she seems to be surprised when someone asks her difficult questions !

[Zacs-Master]

Exactly Anne.

[naomi24]

Mikey, I've not seen her look surprised at questions.

[mikey4444]

Zacs.....interesting theory, but one that I don't believe for one moment.

Now I am late !

[Zacs-Master]

Fair enough.
