Surely now is the time for a vote of utter no confidence in Theresa May. AIBU to think she and those around her are utterly incompetent and making Britain a laughing stock around the globe?

But we could end up with boris.

Be careful what you wish for!

Indeed. Not a Tory supporter but if I were - Rory Stewart? Seems the most sincere to me.

There is only one requirement for a Government, to control Parliament.

If you can't do that....See the Queen.

Well should the executive have a blank cheque?

For one thing they have not been particularly transparent.

Ah - the old 'financial Armageddon that never happened' again. First of all it was predicated on David Cameron triggering Article 50 the day after the election, which he had said he would do (though he should have known that he couldn't). Secondly, there WAS an immediate and significant financial hit, insofar as the Bank of England opened a war chest of £250 billion on June 24th in order to prop up the pound that plummeted immediately, and has never gone back to the same levels. Since then the Bank of England has channelled more billions into the economy via quantitative easing, and a few months ago Philip Hammond was saying there would need to be another Brexit war chest of £60 billion, so more cuts. This financial background somehow never features when people go on about how there wasn't an immediate recession. No, there wasn't - we're still in deep shit though.
