Decent Opposition

[fender62]

all the partys are equally bad in my opinion sadly, all seem rather weak without cohesion
and to much infighting back stabbing or brown mouths, seems it's always been this way though.
im getting tired of all of it, they promise much but never deliver.

Jim, I'm seriously wondering who really has 'lost it' - but it isn't Theresa May. She's still the Prime Minister.

I've seen what 7 years of 'faux austerity', taking money from the nation and giving it to rich friends can do, Baldric - I'm perpetually astonished that people who are indubitably worse off under a hardline Tory regime continue to be baffled by their *** and continue to queue up to vote for them.

There is a better way ...

The vultures are circling, Naomi...

May has the office, the keys to the door... and her reputation is trashed. She'll be gone before the next election.

///There is a better way///
Possibly, but not by Labour bankrupting the Country, for which they have a 'Track Record'

Daily Mail good enough for you db?

Have to agree with Jim @ 00:13. She'll be gone long before the next election. The Tories do not like failure, nor is the virtue of forgiveness widely practised within the Party.

Jim, I know the vultures are circling – you’re one of them (in a minor sort of way), but on the grand scale of things Mrs May’s reputation among her enemies is not important. That people are so short-sighted that they would hand the keys to number 10 to the potential disaster for this country that is Corbyn is a far more serious consideration. You really wouldn’t want to live under a Socialist/Marxist/Communist/ Corbyn-inspired regime – and neither would Mikey et al …. seriously, you wouldn't ....believe me.

[jim360]

At this point I think there are only two people in the country who'd refer to May as having "won" anything -- and Theresa May isn't even one of them.

Thanks for the agreement, jd.

[jim360]

Well, at least it would be a Strong and Stable Maxist government.

[naomi24]

Would we? Are you sure? Think Jim, think.

ps. Mrs May is still the Prime Minister. Work it out.

[jim360]

I have thought, Naomi. Do stop telling people who disagree with you that they haven't thought. It's patronising, arrogant, rude, and is the kind of attitude that ends up throwing away stable majorities.

[sunny-dave]

Semantics are the last resort of someone who has been out googled, db.

It's a pact between the Tories and the DUP - two separate parties these days.

[naomi24]

Jim, truth hurts, so attack the messenger why don't you? Go ahead.
I can take it. ;o)

[jim360]

I'm not attacking the messenger, I'm attacking the message.

It's possible to disagree with you and have thought about it at the same time. The simple fact is that May has come out of this very badly. I note that when *I* say so you see fit to argue the point, but when TTT, or ymb, or Jackdaw, or vetuste, or all the other right-wing AB members say so, you barely have a word to say in response to them.

Theresa May has "won" this election in the same way that the Persians "won" the Battle of Thermopylae. It's a disastrous victory, a personal humiliation, and the end of her effectiveness as Prime Minister. She will see that soon enough, even if you do not.

I think the penny may have dropped......x

[naomi24]

Jim, I have disagreed with other conservative supporters that Mrs May is wholly to blame. Your insecurities are showing.
