Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,663 Posted January 15, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted January 15, 2019 Fucking hell. To be fair I imagine May will just be relieved when this is all over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted 1,776 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 In seriousness I have no confidence in this motion. After a brief flirtation with their conscience, I'm sure the Tories will close ranks tomorrow and we'll stumble on with the May government for a couple more months yet.

In fairness to May, she's not as cowardly as Cameron, in fact she's quite the glutton for punishment. In answer to your question; yes, although their current incarnation is just one in a long line of terrible governments we've had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm totally an outsider on this debate but fuck I have some sympathy for your current PM. Seems to be in about the most impossible of political positions that i can imagine and with a shit load of urgency. I'd give her credit simply still breathing given the pressure that must be upon her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that due to the back door of getting into Downing Street being shut, Labour have now thrown their toys out the pram and Corbyn has decided to speak with her unless a no deal Brexit was ruled out. Surely by not talking means a no deal Brexit is more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I've said it before and I'll say it again, it seems like it doesn't matter which party it is nowadays - if you're in a leadership role in a party in Britain, you're probably incompetent and you're definitely in way over your head. I don't know if it's always been that way, and I'm just older now so I can see it a bit clearly... but it certainly feels like the overall level of competence in the party leaders has generally been completely eroded. And I don't know if it's just because May and Corbyn are both piss poor orators and I have memories of Blaire and Cameron (both of which, I must add, are two giant bags of dogshite disguised as people who then led the fucking country). But even compared to those two awful excuses for human beings, May and Corbyn come off looking way more inept. Maybe it's because they're left squabbling over the mess Cameron left behind. May being propped up by DUP is a joke though and now we've got this totally shite PM who is tremendously unpopular, incapable of negotiating anything with the EU that will pass a vote here, and continuing to stare uncertainty in the face with this absolute joke of a PM still holding the reigns. I miss the day where DUP were a fringe party of barely any political relevance, instead of being a fringe party that's keeping a dogshite PM at the helm.

I don't think politicians these days are incompetent honestly. I think is become a lot harder to be a politician in the current age. The economic fundamentals are way shakier, political discourse is way nastier, and every word you ever say is recorded to be used against you later. I don't envy them at all...

By the standards with which you can call Corbyn a terrorist sympathiser, the DUP are outright terrorists. And in any case support for terror has been British government policy for decades, the only issue people have with Corbyn is that he doesn't pick the right purveyors of terror - like the UDF, the House of Saud, Pol Pot or Augusto Pinochet.

Yep we back shithouses, but the harsh reality of life is you’re either the oppressed or the oppressors. Corbyn is so full of self loathing over it he’s prepared to willingly invite the oppressed to swap positions. Of course you omitted Iran, Hamas & Chavez all who Corbyn has backed in the last ten years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
