She needs a clear mandate before going out to engage with the eurostrom, so much snapping at her heels, even within her own party, and if she wins, she gets that vital mandate, and if the Tories lose, well, then it's not on her. Clever woman, and what's needed next, is someone very clever. All the old political landmarks are moving, nothing's where it used to be.Katie-Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00966201239974476026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495971764170848323.post-57429738075303505172017-04-19T16:42:08.576+01:002017-04-19T16:42:08.576+01:00Yep.

Mr Chuka Umunna, always ready with a daft reply tweeted today that "Theresa May is a disgrace-she called an Election because she rejects the idea of an Opposition in our democracy.We are not some dictatorship". As was pointed out by someone rather more eloquent than myself, "Fascinating argument. May is calling a democratic election and that makes her a dictator? What's it like down that rabbit hole Chuka?". This illustrates how a person whom some have called the intelligent face of Labour can display in one brief burst of characters how hopelessly inept many politicians are. In contrast, Mrs May is seen as the only vaguely feasible leader of the country in what are going to be the most testing negotiations our Government has ever had to deal with. I hope the majority see this as well, and give her a majority to let her get on with the job in hand.@cambridge_peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419895952370475137noreply@blogger.com
