Irony is not lost. I did ask for Jezza's female alternative in the other thread, hypothetically speaking, to get the bearings in their recent coup; few options emerged, even though the party isn't short on women. And I don't hold out for Eagle to win in a head-to-head contest, if it ever happens: she doesn't seem to have a huge backing from the Union side and members should mostly go for Corbo still.



Hide your prons, deuse, Auntie May's watching! :D

I'll be watching her if she doesn't invoke article 50 next week :D

So she's basically a female british version of Donald Trump, full of crap and hot air and no actual real substance. God help us, Leadsom as PM would be like going to a hospital for a very complex lengthy transplant surgery and it being performed by a newly qualified junior doctor. How many people would agree to that ??...........

Yet we seem to be happy with the possibility of a junior energy minister, who is known to have lied on her CV, and at one time denied the existence of climate change, clearly has an issue with homosexuals and likes to partake in bloodsports, to lead this country in negotiations with some of the toughest cookies in Europe.

Jesus clearly tells Andrea many things; a short summary of her last hustings:https://inews.co.uk/essentials/news/politics/andrea-leadsoms-off-wall-views-lead-car-crash-hustings/.

Yet I do feel someone needs to pull her aside, preferably a bishop from the upper chamber, to tell her about separating matters of faith and state and evidence-based arguments.

It just never ends. I look forward to Theresa digging in.
 
Hunt is going to be one of May's adviser's, if he makes as much of a hash of this as he did in his role of Health Secretary then Andrea stands a good chance of being our next PM!!

:p

oh dear god

She balances a fervent belief in the power of markets with a strong Christian faith, regularly attending Bible study sessions in Parliament. She reportedly believes that God encouraged her to enter into politics.

Actually WTF !!!

yeah and I've got a radio in my head controlled by Fidel Sodding Castro
 
So let me get this straight

Andrea = Christian, believes that god told her?
May = Strong believer in the Islamic way of life, Sharia law

Geesh!
 
Surely 'we' aren't stupid enough to cheer Boris on while he tours the country as part of a political campaign again?

Trick question lol.

Tory branches love him still, apparently. And can you blame them, candidates being what they are? Never know, could be dangerous. Unless of course it's a 'clever' sabotage... again.

Yep, ballot by snail mail, I'm afraid. For whatever reason, they also pushed back the end date from 2 September to 9 September. :\ Really playing for time here, eh?

It was pushed back because of the G8 (G7?) summit wasn't it? Would be pretty retarded to send a PM 1 day hot into the job straight there.

Oh, and we're yet to see her tax returns -- always a fun trawl with politicians. :)

Oh you mean if wiki was right before somebody in her campaign deleted it all, she has taken advantage of every tax avoidance measure and her company is in a trust for her children and all her money is in an offshore tax haven which "donates"£70k a year to her political campaign?

I still don't understand how she was made a junior energy minister when she didnt believe in global warming?

Wouldnt that be like making somabody chancellor who didnt believe in economics?
 
Article 50 isn't coming until next year if it does. They really seem to be converging on the EEA position. Interesting coverage on Sky News of this option earlier. The Norway minister basically explaining that despite not being involved in the EU any issues that affect them they provide input to at an early stage.
