So When...

[spathiphyllum]

So.. after over 2 years of tripe lies and negotiations, to come up with a deal no one is happy with, driven by a unelected default leader.. to then be voted with no confidence.. Surely someone is responsible for this time being wasted, and not used to the max?

When will we actually get a new, decent PM? Seems (from other threads) the time is nigh.

[naomi24]

It's possible you'll get a new PM, but it depends what you mean by 'decent'.

[cassa333]

What makes you think she wasn’t elected? She (rather stupidly) called an election as leader and her party won.

[spathiphyllum]

Decent.. IE, someone who wants what they're striving for. Someone with some charisma that isn't the spitting image of cruella de vil.

[CrapAtCryptics]

Who, in the right mind, would want to take over this no win situation unless they are prepared to walk away with no deal if the EU will not renegotiate. I`m sure Boris could do it but there are to many around ready to stab him in the back again.

driven by a unelected default leader

Tusk or Juncker?

[spathiphyllum]

She was not elected. There was mayhem, it was going to be BoJo, then Gove, then everyone decided they didn't want it, until she was the last person standing.

Default PM.

[naomi24]

Spath, the public don't elect the leaders of political parties. They elect political parties.

[spathiphyllum]

Yes, but i don't think a leader should be able to change, and if they do, i think a referendum should take place. Imagine if gove was PM, (it nearly happened!) that is not democratic.

[spathiphyllum]

change whilst mid term

[naomi24]

Leaders sometimes change mid-term. This isn't the first time. Blair morphed into Brown mid-term, didn't he?

[-Talbot-]

A referendum for a change of leader?

Seriously?

[spathiphyllum]

its not hard to go to the poll station ad tick a box. I don't see the big issue with referendums. The more, the more democratic.

[naomi24]

But May ended up the only contender ....

[Gromit]

May will survive the Tory no confidence vote.
But when she loses the Brexit deal vote by all MPs, she must go.

[spathiphyllum]

For the tory party. Imagine that, a whole parry, only one person wants to lead it, and not for the good reasons, but for selfish reasons. She did not want brexit, she has not made a good deal. She has made a pigs ear out of it, and now she's probably going to dip into the shadows. Pathetic.

[Kromovaracun]

I am a little confused that anyone could possibly consider Johnson to be an option given his time as Foreign Sec (remember "*** business"?)

There's not a decent option available for PM at the moment.

[theshedman]

If they do decide to get rid of her I hope they pick someone who actually did want to leave and get this over one way or another as I for one am getting fed up with it non stop on everything on tv. Spath we have already had a referendum and voted to leave but is it not democratic for the losers to keep asking for another one because they lost. It's a bit like school children saying lets have best of 3 or best of 5 if they lose first time around.

[theshedman]

Forgot to put as someone who voted to leave I think I would rather remain than have this so called deal she is supposed to accept by our so called friends in Europe. At least we would then have a say in what happens.

[spathiphyllum]

Krom i didn't mean he was a good option, but when cameron left, Johnston and Gove were big contenders to be the next PM, but they both stepped down for contenders. Probably due to the *** show that it was.

[-Talbot-]

Spath wants a referendum on

Should Theresa May be allowed to take over as leader of the Conservative party and be Prime Minister

Yes
No
