Only Theresa May could actually arrive at "the worst of all worlds"


She surpasses herself :)

If this is true and there are the numbers, then she will have to face a vote of no confidence...


She would win it as there simply aren't enough Brextremists to defeat her, but the much bigger problem she could face is if they then start voting against her in the HoC. Labour have already said that the Chequers deal doesn't pass their tests. The big irony in all this is that the Brextremists are now relying on the EU to reject the deal...

I wish to pay tribute to David Davis. He was a fine man and saved many goals for us Welsh back in the 80s when he was known as Dai. His political career however, did not match his goal keeping.


I'm sure he'll now travel out to Russia to give his much needed advice to the England team and as a Welshman I appreciate that.

there is no principle at stake here except some analogue of a dr. strangelove plan for self preservation and the procreation of the species in their own selfish likeness. No one here has the good of the people of this country at heart. laid bare before us - but will we take note or dismiss is as more theatre and turn our back on further political involvement?


The rats in my shed have more honour than these people

All the wailing and gnashing of teeth from Brexiters is quiet breathtaking. They won the vote to leave the EU and it looks like that's what's going to happen. Still they're not happy. Are there any circumstances at all under which they would be placated I wonder?

For many of them I doubt. The vitriol and hatred on social media is astonishing.


Now, I know that?s Twitter etc, and not to be taken entirely seriously, but I do feel it?s noteworthy how many people see this as a deliberate attempt by May to destroy Brexit.


Personally I think they?re deluding themselves on many levels, but I wouldn?t ignore them. Right now there seems to be a lot of anger; mostly to me it shows just how many people are willing to crash out on a hard Brexit? As well as demonstrating the folly of letting each individual think they can define Brexit.

    • Our camera caught two folks doing this. One of them led me to believe the delivery driver was in on it as he left the package in a very odd place that the thief (who arrived about 10 minutes after from a direction where he could not have seen where the driver left it) went straight to it and took it - but he then dumped it halfway down the next road as clearly packets of freeze-dried food for a DofE award wasn't to his liking (karma sucks!). The second time a guy pulled his bike up in broad daylight, walked down to our door, opened the box, threw the empty box down and stuffed what he had found in his backpack and brazenly waved at the camera and then cycled off. Police asked us to upload his picture but we never heard anything back.
    • I hear that Landells Road has had a spate of parcels being taken,
    • In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him
