Theresa May

[whiskeryron]

Did anyone see the Rt Hon. Theresa May, MP, Tory Home Secretary get trounced by Andrew Marr this morning ?

[Svejk]

Yes, she's very poor.

Typical politician answer the question asked with nothing like the answer to the question.

Ron....I rarely watch the telly on a Sunday morning, in fact almost never.

Do you have a link please ?

To quote Malcolm Tucker it was like watching a clown running through a minefield.
She has the demeanour of one who would struggle to organise a pillow fight in a dormitory.

What amazes me abut all this is that all those people that voted Tory last May, and many did here on AB, are now perhaps running away from their choice. Dave is leading the Stay campaign, Osbourne has completely cocked up his Budget, and May is now being beaten on a debate by Marr.

Oh dear !

Osborne out of the running, May out of the running; come on, Boris, the cup is yours.

Thank you very much for giving us a chance to see that, whiskeryron. Revealing indeed. :)

[mikey4444]

For once we may agree Jack, but I always thought that Boris was the most likely to succeed Dave, when he resigns soon.

[mikey4444]

Yes... thanks Ron.

^^^ I'm so glad I voted UKIP last time and helped to give us a chance for this referendum. :)

Boris will need the Euro vote to go his way, otherwise he'll find he's out of the running. I suppose you are warming to Cameron now Mikey because of Europe

[Jackdaw33]

Boris can't lose. If it's OUT, then he is champion, if it's IN then he is a mighty warrior who fought gallantly for the cause.

[fiction-factory]

Mmm. If we vote REMAIN i can't really see Cameron appointing Boris to a senior role. But maybe he'll have built up support among Tory MPS/members

[Jackdaw33]

That's not the point. Cameron has stated that he will go before 2020 so a successor must be found.

[jourdain2]

That is why Cameron is being as unguarded as he is, of course. If he had an election to face all this would be very different.
