Who On Earth Elected May?

[Minkyme]

She’s like having found an angry pregnant opossum under your kitchen table who doesn’t want to leave but one things for sure, you’re going to make if leave.

She’s tired, old, haggard and just not up for the job or any pm job.

I wanted a vibrant young fighter in our corner not this miserable bag lady past her sellby date.

Brexit is going to be her crusifiction, mark my words.

Good riddance to old rubbish is what I say.

[naomi24]

Ahhh ...... yes.

[Prudie]

Oh I'm only halfway there..how frustrating

[Tilly2]

I have to ask myself...does it really matter?

[Mamyalynne]

Obviously does to Minky, they must be loving it.

[Tilly2]

Indeed, Mamya.

(Funny news post this)

In answer to your question Minkyme, I did ( and a few million others of course).Since the alternative was Jeremy Corbyn, it was a bit of a no- brainer for me. Do I regret it? No. Whatever I think about the current shenanigans, it's still better than Jeremy Corbyn (and Diane Abbott).

[naomi24]

No, it doesn't really matter. I forget most people very easily. Given a little nudge I sometimes have a 'Ding' moment though. ;o)

Really?

[gulliver1]

What's your corner then Naomi ?.

[Old_Geezer]

I believe that the Tory party elected her, from a choice of one after the rest were convinced to wimp out for now.

"In answer to your question Minkyme, I did ( and a few million others of course)."

No you didn't, margaret. All you did was to elect your local MP. The Queen then invited Mrs May to Buck House, as the person most likely to command a majority in the Commons, and asked her to form a government. The electorate does not elect Prime Ministers in the UK.

[Spicerack]

Semantics. A lot of people were frightened into voting Conservative to avoid getting Steptoe. Local politics didn't enter the equation.
If May is still there at the next election, I doubt people will make that mistake again.

[Zacs-Master]

Strange memory some people have of voting for Mrs May. OG was another one a few weeks ago but he seems to have now realised....actually...he didn’t.

[-Talbot-]

Maybe margarettom lives in Maidenhead?

[sivam]

Nasty. Copes well with abuse such as this. She is actually quite a stylish lady. Where is your vibrant young fighter who would take over and solve everything?

[Gromit]

// Who On Earth Elected May? //

No one. She became PM because everyone else ran away, including Boris, Gove and Leadsome. They were afraid of having to deliver Brexit and are still sfraid, Which is why there has been no vote of No Confidence, No Leadership Challenge, No New Prime Minister.

[ichkeria]

Changing prime minister now would not be sensible. We may not have voted for May but we did vote for Messxit and are now reaping what we sowed.
There’s a lot of criticism but no one could do any better: this chaos was always likely

[naomi24]

ichkeria, //we did vote for Messxit//

Not so. No one voted for that.

//this chaos was always likely//

Yes, because it’s always been the will of the losers to negate democracy. If you want someone to blame, lay blame where it belongs…. firmly with the Remainers.

[cassa333]

It’s amazing how it is the remainers playing the blame game for the mess. Leave voters voted to leave. Remainers have made the mess.

It is the remainer ministers and government departments who are hell bent on making the exit as messy as possible.

The leave MPs are volcal about what leaving means it is all the remainers behind the scenes that have at every turn tried to bog it up with their ideology and sycophantic worship of the EU.

[naomi24]

Cassa, the 'Not me Guv' syndrome is becoming very commonplace around here lately. Always someone else's fault.
