I don't feel she is so smug - just very reserved & possibly a bit shy; but she has a certain steely determination about her that is needed now in Europe.


The smug one is Gove - I cannot percieve any redeeming feature in the guy. He is intelligent & clever but shows no empathy or capacity to meet others half way. HAS DISAGREED WITH ALMOST EVERYONE HE HAS WORKED WITH ! Not consensual so would find it very hard to negotiate in Brussels which is the capital of compromise.

She didn't threaten voters with a supplementary budget

Anyway, it was Osborne who ruled himself out.


Theresa May is ideally placed to negotiate an immigration policy that will be suitable for the UK. She did a reasonably good job under difficult conditions & now she can put that experience to good use during discussions in Brussels & elsewhere.

That would be a fantastic dummy on Boris and would be very cheering - though I fear it might give him a "wronged martyr" status with the Tory rank and file which might facilitate him leading a coup against May at a later date.

A BBC headline described it as "real life House of Cards"... pretty accurate I'd say!

She has now said that sending EU people living in the UK

home is on the table.


Not sure about that - even though it's obviously a bargaining

chip.

    • But a larger number, in a more hotly contested election, didn't. It is an anomaly that Starmer won a landslide in seats with a turnout for Labour which would have shamed Labour leaders in all the 21st and much of the post war 20th century.
    • I was not suggesting anything else!   I'm not sure how you interpret what I said  as "irrelevant"? I was responding to a post saying that Corbyn was "unelectable". My point was that a  large number  of the electorate  voted for him!
    • that's exactly what happened - Brickhouse were forced to close due to rent hike and then Gail's didn't move in until covid restrictions lifted and normality resumed. Gail's would have opened much sooner as they were lined up and able to offer the landlord much higher rents. Brickhouse was a local favourite
    • The Brickhouse closed just before Covid December 2019. Nothing to do with Gails muscling in as they didn't move into till December 2022. Stop trying to fit a false narrative into a story
