Oh Foxy, again so vacant in rational thought. There are bound to be Brexiters gutted that a Brexiter will now not be PM. Which is very amusing. Did May say that before Leadsom quit? Maybe she was fibbing. Edited July 11, 2016 by Radan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxy lady Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 How very Communist. An election with just one candidate:cool: Never mind. The Labour Party look like having one that you can vote in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eater Sundae Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 According to the BBC a source said she pulled out because "the abuse has been too great". May in, brexit done, member of eea (all the EU none of the say). Done. No mention of abuse or similar in her withdrawal speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is very amusing. Did May say that before Leadsom quit? Maybe she was fibbing. Oh well. It clearly doesn't take much to amuse you. As a Brexiter my only concern is that we leave the EU. Who is driving the bus at the time is of no interest. It is the final destination that matters, and Theresa May has clearly stated that is the direction she will be taking. The fact that a few posts back May becoming leader gave you another straw to cling on to for a few brief seconds is rather amusing though. ---------- Post added 11-07-2016 at 12:39 ---------- vote-lawyers-letter/[/url] How did you come to this conclusion? the membership had yet to be asked. They ran a opinion poll of the membership over the weekend. And the Referendum Bill got full parliamentary assent through both the House of Commons, The Lords and finally Royal assent.

alchresearch Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 An amusing hustings last week: According to one member of the audience, Andrea Leadsom was guilty of a “car crash” performance during her first Tory leadership hustings in the Commons. One MP described her views as “rather off the wall”, while a Theresa May supporter claimed that Ms Leadsom would run into “deep trouble” in head-to-head debates with the Home Secretary in front of party activists. The energy minister came under pressure over Ukip’s apparent backing for her candidature and baffled some MPs by talking about “the frontal cortex of a baby’s brain”. Ms Leadsom’s political and personal outlook will come under intense scrutiny if – as looks increasingly likely – she contests Ms May for the keys to Downing Street. Thank goodness she's stood down. She was out of her depth for the role. Corbyn ought to take note. https://inews.co.uk/essentials/news/politics/andrea-leadsoms-off-wall-views-lead-car-crash-hustings/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the leadership is sorted out we can progress with negotiations. Do you deny the possibility that if all we can manage is a ****-poor deal that isn't in Britain's best interests May wouldn't say, let's stay in? You can say that with absolute 100% confidence? Would you bet your made up £100,000 Aston fund on it (if it was real that is)? As Tinf hinted at the top of the page, May favours EEA membership. All the EU, none of the say. Was that what you had in mind when you voted Leave? Edited July 11, 2016 by Radan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berberis Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 They ran a opinion poll of the membership over the weekend. Do you have a link to this poll of the membership. I would find it interesting reading as I am one of the membership and I do not recall being asked for my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamston Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Just proves the Conservative Party are the party of common sense and the Labour Party are not the party of common sense. Well done to Andrea Leadsom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
