THE BREXIT FALLOUT CONTINUES - THREAD NINE

The Tories have settled their scores and May is now PM.
Is it May's Day or May Day for the people?

After careful consideration I thought the best way to sum up the Labour Contest was in one simple picture. May Day, might also be appropriate here too.

----------------

Things are moving fast, so hold on tight for the Brexit Ride

Sense of humour compulsory. No experience necessary though

She's clearly put some real thought into how to skewer all her potential rivals - at least I hope so... Prince Andrew seems to GE an asset after all, and BJ can't be much worse than him.... He's probably up for the "socialising" with obnoxious dictators if nothing else.

An arsehole as Foreign Secretary. Trumpeting his ghastly guffs at the world like a character in Viz.

I don't care who gets them as long as Hunt and Morgan are gone.

(Hello new. Loving these threads)

I think evil genius. Will be fluff job, whilst Brexir team deal with real stuff and Fox is neutralised trying to get international trade agreements. Very clever and Boris can't complain as one of main offices of state.

This is welcome respite from horror of Labour. Am shocked how hopeful I feel about May!

Amber Rudd was a Remainer, she's the one who was mean to poor Boris during one of the debates, saying you wanted him at your party but not to drive you home.

I think Prince A and BJ together could get through the worlds supply of vodka at the very least. There will be shortages...

So what is Amber Rudd like then

On Question Time a lot - bellows, makes me shout at the telly. But was pretty good in one of the Brexit debates

Amber Rudd went to Cheltenham Ladies College and Edinburgh Uni, her mother was a Marchioness for a little while. She used to be married to A A Gill, she's is a trustee of the Snowdon Trust, an organisation that helps young disabled people access education.

She's pretty unknown tbh, Express profile www.express.co.uk/news/politics/689030/Amber-Rudd-who-is-Energy-Secretary-top-job-cabinet-Prime-Minister-Theresa-May-profile

Totally agree about Hunt and Morgan. Whatever you might think of May, she's not stupid and will know that they are extremely unpopular on all sides of the political spectrum.

Amber Rudd was the one who said you don't want Boris driving you home at the end of the night, I think.

Chris Grayling has nothing yet. I would be amazed if he gets nothing.

No wonder Boris looked pissed off. She told him exactly what she thought of him, and that she was chopping the balls off the department and sending him abroad to castrate him politically.

Fecking boris. Unbelievable.

Quite a snub to Osborne.

Hammond and may? Will it go the same way as top gear!

I think getting Osborne out of there is a wise move. Is this an indication that austerity will be pared back?
