Zac Goldsmith retakes Richmond Park!

Just six months after he lost – running as an independent – to Lib Dem Sarah Olney in a byelection, Zac Goldsmith (now a Tory again) has won back the Richmond Park seat.

The country has been weakened by deceit and false promises, and sadly, nobody gains.

Bad news for holiday makers: The pound has just hit a new five-month low against the euro, at €1.1322.

That means one euro buys 88.3p.

announcement..MAY IS NOT STANDING DOWN ....just reported as breaking news on telly

[youngmafbog]

She can't - jut yet otherwise Corbyn would, quite legitimately be able to claim the right to form a Government.

Sad day for the country, so look out. We reap what we sow.

Jomlett,
I remember when Gordon Brown was mismanaging the economy, and £1 was worth €1.70.

[malagabob]

Europe will be looking at us and thinking what a load of tosses.

[murraymints]

will not resign then ! mincing words !

[murraymints]

but..I can hear the knives being sharpened...Et tu Brute ?

[youngmafbog]

She cant step down or resign, whatever the term is. The reason being that JC would then claim the right to form a minority Government given the the Tory leader would not have fought the election. She needs to hold steady, try to form a Government and then stand down.

Either way we will be looking at another election next year by the looks of things.

[murraymints]

she has no intentions of resigning after a new government has been formed whatever that may be !

[youngmafbog]

I suspect it wont be her choice she is arrogant to the core, that is why the Tory's have lost.

She will go down in history for this one!

[naomi24]

YMB, she doesn’t come across to me as arrogant - not at all. I think she mistakenly believed that the public have more sense than they actually have.

[murraymints]

but the Tories have not lost !

[Gromit]

Naomi,
'It is the will of the people' and apparently you cannot argue with that.

[Trawlerman]

Well there we are thank goodness that's over, now comes months of in fighting and insults across parliament, never mind actually governing. Stop the name calling and sniping get on with being a government.

[Hopkirk]

I see Jeremy Corbyn holds Bristols.

[murraymints]

EEK Hoppy !

[Zacs-Master]

' I think she mistakenly believed that the public have more sense than they actually have.'

As has now been proven on two occasions!
