The Absolute Best Thing About Brexit
Corbyn destabilised.
Tezza May as PM
Gove gone.
Johnson roasted
Farage gone.
Hypocrite Crabb destroyed by 'sexting'.
As someone who was 'soft Leave' I literally couldn't be happier right now.
All you'd need right now is snow and a fat fella, and you've got Christmas.
Cameron finally persuaded me to vote Tory and Theresa might very well persuade me to stay...but is it too early to be celebrating the fall of the 'rabid Right'?

Cameron lead the remain vote. He lost.
Why would he want to lead the exit strategy when his fight was lost and overruled. He didn't run. He stepped down and allowed another to take up the baton. I don't like Cameron as leader of my party but how did he know another remainer would fill his boots?
Bojo was stabbed in the back by Gove.
Leadsom was a little clumsy and naive with the press.
No Tory ran and hid like that mealy mouthed Corbyn cowering in his bunker like a demented loon. We have a new leader/ PM sorted in quick time mostly through cut and thrust of politics whereas Labour couldn't organise the proverbial and are a laughing stock of UK politics.

The only thing that bothers me is that potential 'poisoned chalice' (Gromit - note the correct spelling of 'chalice' - I've held my tongue over the past two weeks, but it's time to call you on it) handed to Tezza May.
There's a possibility that she might have to become Britain's answer to Claire Underwood to navigate those choppy waters...

Corbyn has been interviewed on TV so hardly cowering anywhere.
The party is in a temporary stalemate since the Tory lite MPs are confronting the left wing leader whom they think can't win an election for them; and they think being in power pushing Tory policies is more important that sticking to the philosophy of the party and givibg voters a choice. An unfortunate situation but hardly a laughing stock.

It was something that Farage stated in the campaign.
Then the day after the results were announced he said, "Actually, that was a mistake".

But y'know - by then the votes were cast.
Whilst Farage was not part of Vote.Leave, he absolutely had the ear of the nation, being the leader of UKIP.
So...y'know - it's right that people should feel a little conned.
But then again - I'm sure that some of that £350million per week should make its way to essential services. We just need to wait until Article 50 is enacted and the negotiations are completed.
Hoping some of that cash will go to the Whittington Hospital in Islington. They really need to get a new coffee machine in A&E.

retrocop, Cameron had the job but suddenly decided he didn't want it any more, though he was the one who called the referendum in the first place - he just didn't feel like dealing with the results of his own action.
Boris was stabbed in the back, but nothing stopped him from staying in the race anyway; he took two seconds to decide to jump ship, having already started making noises about not implementing article 50.
Gove supposedly stood for the job but his covering letter was basically "For God's sake don't choose me." He didn't want it, he just didn't want Boris to have it.
Leadsom quit rather than go to a vote (having been smeared by Murdoch papers and the Mail; nasty, but part of the job).
All of them could have stayed if they wanted to. All of them ran away. Only May volunteered to sort out the country's future. Fine by me.
Corbyn, whatever you may say, *is* running for a job. Too many Tories ran in the opposite direction.

This whole thing about Boris being stabbed in the back...I don't buy it.
So Gove decided not to support Boris.
So what?
Why would that have made Boris bow out?
Couldn't have said, "Fair enough...you don't support me, but the Tory faithful absolutely love me, and when they hear about what you've done, I'll get all the sympathy."
I genuinely think there was more to Boris bowing out than Gove withdrawing support. Something smells like last week's haddock mornay there...

Are you serious?
The book is described thus:
Sour Grapes aims to subvert orthodox theories of rational choice through the study of forms of irrationality. Dr Elster begins with an analysis of the notation of rationality, to provide the background and terms for the subsequent discussions, which cover irrational behaviour, irrational desires and irrational belief.
How the long winter evenings must fly by, with that on the reading list...
