[youngmafbog]

Any punts n who will go and in what order?

[Jackdaw33]

May. If she wont jump she'll be pushed. She's a latter-day Heath.

Hardly surprising is it ? He was humiliated in Boston and Skegness last night.

Perhaps its now time for UKIP to fold permanently, rather than struggle on any more.

[Hopkirk]

I think he'll be the only one to go. Unusual, because normally big heads roll.

[youngmafbog]

I dont think UKIP will fold completely until BREXIT has actually happened.

I do findit odd that TM got most seats, but is slated to resign, whereas JC lst but will stay

[jim360]

What's odd about that? One went backwards, the other gained seats.

[youngmafbog]

As jim says. It looks odd on the face of it but you have to look at what JC achieved. Why would his party want him to go now (excepting the Blairites of course).

[mikey4444]

Bednobs...the reason that May should go, is that she called an entirely unnecessary Election, and completely beggered up her campaign, and ended up in a much worse place than when she started.

[ummmm]

There was a lot going on during the campaign...terrorist attacks and all that.

[ToraToraTora]

TBF though UKIP's work is done, I have said many times they should disband.

[mikey4444]

To be honest, I feel a bit sorry for Nuttall. He seems to be basically a nice chap, with none of the usual UKIP mad-as-a-box-of-frogs problems.

The job as Leader of UKIP was always going to be a poisoned chalice, and he should have realised that, so his judgement must be called into question I suppose.
