...to be absolutely delighted that Boris has resigned as Foreign Secretary?

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

That's all, folks! Goodness only knows what happens now. But at least that Grade A twat is no longer representing us abroad.

I don't believe nana's version of the 'truth' for a second.

That was the beginning of the decimation of industry in this country. We don't actually have much manufacturing industry left which is another reason we'll be even more in the shit with Brexit.

I'm so politically confused. Delighted Boris has gone, but fearful how he may reemerge... I think Theresa's days are well and truly numbered. I'm very pro-remain and wish someone would be brave enough to step up and call a snap general election or at least another referendum. For me, strong leadership would be from David Milliband, Vince Cable or even Nick Clegg.

@Bluntness100that was to someone who reckons May is competent just because she got elected

May was never elected by the people. She stood into the breach when Cameron ran with his tail between his legs.

@Unfinishedkitchen your analysis is pretty much spot on. None of our politicians have the foggiest when it comes to negotiating against the EU.

Google Hancock and Shankland. Landmark case in history of homicide. Convictions for murder quashed as jury misdirected. Convictions for nanslsughter upheld. Their defence? We only meant to frighten them. Would be funny but a man died.
But you believe it’s all made up if it comforts you

@NanaNoodleman
No problem with assemblies, joined quite a few myself.My problem is with people who want to whitewash the past. Which is what you’re doing. I know you’re untruthful, but others may not.

Untruthful?

Please state how?

Exactly. Yet people say May is more competent because she was elected.

People say Corbyn is a weak leader and incompetent. As a party leader he prioritises the voice of the party despite his own beliefs, that is a strong, competent leader.

He also does this despite his previous rebellions from Labour.

You know this is about the best politicians to lead our country right??!

Countries, there is more than one country in the UK.

It would be very refreshing to have politicians who gave a feck about the people in all those countries. The current bunch seem mainly interested in lining their own pockets and one-upmanship. It is our political party system that needs reviewing.

Country being the UK. What else shall we call it? Ok Empire if you like!

So far we have corbyn/and any other clueless labour candidates/ May/ Boris/Gove and all that entails /Sturgeon/ Leanne fucking Wood....

Anyone else you'd like to consider??

Shall we throw keys into a bowl and go with the luck of the draw??

This^ with knobs on.

I'm not even sure it's about competency but I believe May has more experience in government that helps her.

I think it's also about desire to do it, and I don't believe Corbyn has any desire to be in power at this stage. He is exactly where he wants to be. In opposition.

I don't even think most of the Labour Party members and defintely not their supporters believe Corbyn is a strong competent leader.

Look @Bluntness100 We've already established that you aren't an extra lobe in his brain.
Stop making things up and writing it as though it's facts.

When you fail to be able to form a cohesive argument back, just make daft remarks, then you lose the argument, you do know that don't you?

@Bluntness100
They do in the ward meetings and CLP's I go to and they do on the doorstep too

Most people have a social conscience, have had enough of austerity and yes....would vote Labour.

You can't just say that what you think is what Jeremy Corbyn thinks, don't you?
You do know you don't have access to his brain don't you?

Sounds like sharky Boris has smelt the blood in the water for TM and is planning his post Brexit bid for PM - and with Davis gone, I guess he is keen not to become the Brexit whipping boy.

Must be handy to be in a job where you can just quit the bits that are too difficult but still be able to keep the other parts of the job, no loss of income and the ability to abdicate responsibility when it suits.

Planet these increasingly unhinged (or decreasingly hinged?) contributions are only serving to confirm what all the howwible tories think about the hard left, you do realise that?

@NanaNoodleman

Unhinged?

And I don't think you answered my question to the last insult you threw.

Boris effectively halved his parliamentary salary today.

@Cismyass massive cuts to medical help for me and kids. Mental health problems for child, unable to access proper treatment for my disability in a timely manner thus causing further complications, more disability.

Yes we get PIP & DLA but my son is mentally ill and my health is worse than it should be. My kids aren't getting access to help at school that they used to get, TA positions are being but and his special school is going to have to go to 4 days a week.

But yeah go on, make it all about benefits 🙄

Oh fucking hell they gave it to C Hunt

I shit you not!

Ok, I’ll bite. You suggested that miners never spat at police during the strike in what appears to be an attempt to convince the gullible that the conduct on that side of the dispute was impeccable. In fact many did much worse things. You are also peddling hatred of the police.
There are some people who will say and believe anything that fits with their agenda; it’s precisrly this tendency that’s got us into this Brexit shitshow.
