To think the Tory party might turn on May?

[misskelly]

It looks like the Tories will win the election but not with the big win they were expecting. I'm beginning to wonder if the party will turn on May and bump her out. They do have a history of back stabbing each other. But if she is bumped who would replace her? The other options are horrendous, can you imagine David Davis or Boris as PM? Yikes!

I think they should. Hugely disappointed in her.

her and the party deserve each other

If they replace her I suspect it would be Rudd or Johnson.

There would be something a bit off about making such a big deal that "Theresa May is the only person who can deliver Brexit" during the election, and then having her replaced as soon as they win.

It would certainly set her successor up for endless attacks about being unelected ...

They have form for doing this. It could back fire for her.

I think Amber Rudd is being primed.

Fair play to Amber Rudd for only losing her dad on monday then having to do the debates for the Conservative party last night. Just read this online and shows that , even though she must be going through a bad time personally, TM still let her go ahead and stand in for her.
I still believe that the Tories will win next week, but if its the same majority or less then i think she will go, or hang on for a while, then be taken out.

They have form on the whole for managing their disagreements ( even on their Achilles heel - Europe) in such a way that it doesn't impact on their electoral success. So if they do decide to get rid, I imagine it will be done swiftly. However nobody really wants to manage the Brexit process so they may let her keep the reins until that is over.

It says a lot when no one in the tories actually wants to manage Brexit yet they were the ones who allowed the referendum to go ahead.

I'm not a Tory supporter but always assumed when the time came they'd have enough people for it and being to carry it out.

However they have a remained taking us out who cannot debate the issue live as can only deal on a scripted basis.

My prediction:

Tories will win but not by much. Labour, Lib Dems and Greens will finally get over themselves and work unilaterally to oppose the Tories.
The lead up to Brexit will be carnage. Tories will oust May (she's good at making enemies, just look at Osborne).
Left will call for a vote of no confidence in new leader because of Brexit balls ups and no mandate.
Another GE before 2020.

Et tu Brute?

It's inevitable imo

It has started already, lots of negative articles in the right wing press - lots of critical quotes from a Tory source
