Not even number 10 and 11 are singing from the same hymn sheet. Add to that the swivel eyed harmony section humming their own tune and we have a government not fit for purpose.
Everyone including all of the conservative MP's know that May is finished and yet they can't get the courage up to replace her. Party over country again and again and again by this shower of shit.
not a question of 'the party' replaceing her, there is no viable successor ..
as I wrote on another post, it looks to me as though the backbenchers/the 1922 committee have never had it so good (shades of Harold McM) .. they can use May as a puppet as she is so keen to cling on to her 'position' as PM that she'll do anything that they tell her to do .. she was only voted in as leader because the Tories had splits down the middle over Brexit .. the general election result showed what the electorate think of her .. a preening poseur who is totally out of her depth .. BUT .. would Corbyn and his bunch of illiterates do any better ? .. I think May and the Tories will cling onto power for a few years yet .. remember how Wilson and the Lib/Lab pact and Cameron/Clegg, the 2cs clung on for dear life in days of yore
Quite possibly but that just further damages this country going forward.
Do the damned decent thing and call an election....... No. Not on your nelly. Party before the good of the country. I hope the electorate see through this moribund mob.
Don't see how another election is doing the 'decent thing', we had one a few months ago...... let's say we had another one, let's assume Labour won (I'm not convinced they'd get a majority anymore than the Tories did) - then what, if Labour make a balls of it like many expect we have another one in 3/6 months time?
I personally don't think we should ever have an early election, if you are elected into government for x years that's what you should serve. Certainly a government shouldn't be able to call one because they think it suits them, ala the Tories earlier this year.
The electorate have the right to expect that the government they elect are fit for purpose. We currently have a Prime Minister that everyone accepts is only still there because there is no one either at this point willing or electable enough to take her out. The PM at loggerheads with her chancellor and Foreign Secretary and at least half of the other cabinet members. A Brexit Minister who looks unlikely to be able to deliver any deal in the timescale required and is increasingly looking like a rabbit caught in the headlights.
The most important time for this country since WW2 and we don't even have a Prime Minister that the Conservative party believe in.
The decent thing for this country would be to resign as a government.

I think you've got your rose tinted specs on,
The alternative (Labour) is hardly inspiring. It wasn't so long ago 170+ MP's of the party gave a vote of no confidence in the leader and 20 of the shadow cabinet quit, the shadow cabinet has seen more changes than a pre season friendly over the past 18 month. Despite this did Corbyn quit? Should he have stood down? Whereas Auntie Theresa is at logger heads you say with a number of her cabinet etc so should resign and also so should the government as a whole.
We'll never know if Labour would have made a better or worse job of it so far, we'll get our chance to elect a government again at the next election, but I don't think that will be for a fair while yet.

Oh I agree entirely. I have no confidence that a Corbyn government would be a success.
What I do know though is that this government are not a success and are leading this country down the road to absolute ruin. They have presided and are presiding over the worst position this country has been in since the 1950's. Brexit will finish us off but party over country is more important.

Party over country and also individual over party has been the name of the game for as long as I can remember for the vast majority.
So if you have no confidence in Labour either what would be the point of a government stepping down and another election? The negotiators in the EU would be rubbing their hands.
I really can't go through another election thread this year
It's like watching someone with 7 bullets put 6 in 1 revolver (Tories) and 1 in the other (Labour) and asking you which one you want to play Russian Roulette with. Labour might be terrible but you know for a fact you're fooked under the Tories.
As somebody who thinks Brexit will be a disaster and is seeing the evidence already, I don't want there to be an election for at least another year. With 69% of the population opposing a hard Brexit, that is the way it will be defeated. And it looks like that is all this government can deliver.
The Labour position will have to change when it is too late to negotiate a soft Brexit, but if they got in now, they would have a mandate and time to do it. If the government could get a hard Brexit through a pro remain overall house of commons, it won't get it through with an even more pro remain house of lords, especially as they will easily argue, with justification, it has no mandate.
I think the pro remain Tories and Labour MPs are holding their fire for the moment, but there is no way they won't have been discussing tactics with each other.
Although I'm a Tory through & through I really feel we are making a pigs-ear of Brexit. It doesn't help that 2 of the most Senior members of the Government are remainers (PM & Chancellor) - and the EU know that. I don't think that the people leading the country should be people who don't really believe in what the country asked them to achieve, ie leave the EU.
I'd much prefer Nigel Farage to be doing the negotiating on our behalf - at least he knows how the EU works. I reckon a No Deal is now more likely, especially as the Irish situation wont / cant be agreed upon - as a EU politician recently said, its non-negotiable. Its a hard fact. If we leave the EU properly then there have to be hard borders between us. ROI is a EU country & so there HAS to be a border - anything else & we haven't left & the free movement we wanted to leave behind will still be there.
Finally. Like much in life there is not enough "gonad growing" . Have the EU told us how much they want as a divorce settlement ? if so, why aren't we being told. Today they are saying they not enough has been agreed to move on. I'd tell them " we've done out bit - if you don't think its enough then fine. We'll leave with no deal - and no deal means no payment. We leave. I don't believe Article 51 says anything about payments or settlement of "debts", so fine. We leave in Match 2019 & go from there. No transition period or anything.

I believe one of the sticking points is the 7 year cycle of planned EU infrastructure expenditure which ends in 2019. The current budget is under-spent and is very likely to remain that way due to the short time left to get projects started and completed.
IMO - The UK is saying, "well let's have our bit of that under-spend back", and "don't include us in the next 7 year cycle because we won't be here".

But do we need a hard border? There is no hard border between Norway (non EU) and Sweden (EU), so I understand. This customs relationship is dependent upon an IT solution.

Norway is part of the EFTA and single market, the UK wouldn't be in that.

The people of the ROI and Nothern Ireland will not accept a hard border in a million years. One of the unintended consequences of a hard Brexit will be the inevitable break up of the UK. So the Little Englanders who voted Brexit will be responsible, amongst many things, for the reunification of Ireland. I am sure that will bring them much joy!

Article 50 does mention payment.
We can say "we walk away" but they will still be want the money. The government have agreed that the UK should pay something. The arguement is over how much.
That still leaves the Irish border and the treatment of EU and UK citizens living in the UK and the EU.
All simple stuff according to Davies only it isn't especially when you have no plans and waste months you could have spent planning on a pointless and ultimately destructive election because you (May) got greedy and wanted a blank cheque to do what you liked for five years.
Whether anyone voted leave or remain doesn't matter now. We're leaving and we're all going to have to live with the consequences most of which were foreseen but dismissed as "project fear".

100% this - for a PM that has come out recently saying she's 'getting on with the job' because that's what the British public will want to see, getting on the job was giving all focus and efforts into extracting us from the EU after the referendum, not momentarily stopping for a snap election because you sensed there were a pool of historic labour working class towns and UKIP voters that could somehow join the army of leafy toryites. It reminds me of the Simpsons monorail episode when the former monorail conductor who is racing with Marge to save Homer crashing a monorail into oblivion, stops for a haircut on the way and is too late, leaving Homer to save the day
We probably don't have a Homer Simpson at the controls who can bring this monorail to a negotiated end now, because all we've had is the utter arrogance of the absolute cock wombles that are the Tory party.
This was always going to be a tall order regardless of who carried out negotiations, but our incumbent government are an embarrassment. I am amazed at the constant shit they keep coming out with.
I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if leaving will be a car crash, and I promise I try and stay as opened minded about the arguments put on here by brexit voters, but just in a practical sense it seems like there is going to be a lot of damaging fall out, and I would find it all quite funny as a fuck you to the Tory party, were it not potentially going to detrimentally impact so many normal people's lives

As somebody who thinks Brexit will be a disaster and is seeing the evidence already ..,,,
Is that the doubling in the price of raw materials since the Brexit announcement?
Just asking as you did not respond to my question regarding clarification.
Sorry to push this, but whenever I made statements about figures in the past, posters on here always asked for evidence. Only fair it works both ways.
Why do I have to give you my financial and business information on demand? I'd rather ignore you. You are welcome to ignore me.
I have no interest whatsoever in your business.
You firmly stated that the price of a raw material had doubled and I merely asked which raw material. It has a relevance for me because I work in Trade and this fact was unknown to me.
It’s rather a poor show from you to suggest I am asking for financial and business information when you know very well I was asking a generic question.
I guess you would prefer that I ignored you so that you can avoid the question.
Such a pity really as I thought you were quite genuine in the past. I will just have to draw my own conclusions as to why you are deferring my question.

ROI is a EU country & so there HAS to be a border - anything else & we haven't left & the free movement we wanted to leave behind will still be there.
Finally. Like much in life there is not enough "gonad growing" . Have the EU told us how much they want as a divorce settlement ? if so, why aren't we being told. Today they are saying they not enough has been agreed to move on. I'd tell them " we've done out bit - if you don't think its enough then fine. We'll leave with no deal - and no deal means no payment. We leave. I don't believe Article 51 says anything about payments or settlement of "debts", so fine. We leave in Match 2019 & go from there. No transition period or anything.
I think you've got confused with Area 51...which ironically is a whole different steaming pile of conspiracy theory bullshit.
Although I'm a Tory through & through I really feel we are making a pigs-ear of Brexit. It doesn't help that 2 of the most Senior members of the Government are remainers (PM & Chancellor) - and the EU know that. I don't think that the people leading the country should be people who don't really believe in what the country asked them to achieve, ie leave the EU.
I'd much prefer Nigel Farage to be doing the negotiating on our behalf - at least he knows how the EU works.

Yeah but can you imagine the films they will make about Article 51.

I can imagine it will be boring and drawn out with no clear fucking ending.
As somebody who thinks Brexit will be a disaster and is seeing the evidence already ..,,,
Is that the doubling in the price of raw materials since the Brexit announcement?
Just asking as you did not respond to my question regarding clarification.
Sorry to push this, but whenever I made statements about figures in the past, posters on here always asked for evidence. Only fair it works both ways.
Why do I have to give you my financial and business information on demand? I'd rather ignore you. You are welcome to ignore me.
I have no interest whatsoever in your business.
You firmly stated that the price of a raw material had doubled and I merely asked which raw material. It has a relevance for me because I work in Trade and this fact was unknown to me.
It’s rather a poor show from you to suggest I am asking for financial and business information when you know very well I was asking a generic question.
I guess you would prefer that I ignored you so that you can avoid the question.
Such a pity really as I thought you were quite genuine in the past. I will just have to draw my own conclusions as to why you are deferring my question.
I stated something honestly and qualified that in most cases we have found suppliers elsewhere, but these are still significantly more expensive and in some cases we have had to buy from the same suppliers. then I get some rude crank basically calling me a liar and then you asking for more details. I am not wasting any more time on it - I was talking or moaning to people who think alike, I have no need to justify or waste any more time on any others. Do you want me to scan an old invoice and a new one and put them on here FFS?
Maybe I will when I have some time - but sure you will pick holes in that when I do.

The most important time for this country since WW2 and we don't even have a Prime Minister that the Conservative party believe in.
The decent thing for this country would be to resign as a government.
(Best buddy)
The alternative (Labour) is hardly inspiring. It wasn't so long ago 170+ MP's of the party gave a vote of no confidence in the leader and 20 of the shadow cabinet quit, the shadow cabinet has seen more changes than a pre season friendly over the past 18 month. Despite this did Corbyn quit? Should he have stood down? Whereas Auntie Theresa is at logger heads you say with a number of her cabinet etc so should resign and also so should the government as a whole.
We'll never know if Labour would have made a better or worse job of it so far, we'll get our chance to elect a government again at the next election, but I don't think that will be for a fair while yet.
What I do know though is that this government are not a success and are leading this country down the road to absolute ruin. They have presided and are presiding over the worst position this country has been in since the 1950's. Brexit will finish us off but party over country is more important.
So if you have no confidence in Labour either what would be the point of a government stepping down and another election? The negotiators in the EU would be rubbing their hands.
I really can't go through another election thread this year
The Labour position will have to change when it is too late to negotiate a soft Brexit, but if they got in now, they would have a mandate and time to do it. If the government could get a hard Brexit through a pro remain overall house of commons, it won't get it through with an even more pro remain house of lords, especially as they will easily argue, with justification, it has no mandate.
I think the pro remain Tories and Labour MPs are holding their fire for the moment, but there is no way they won't have been discussing tactics with each other.

The current budget is under-spent and is very likely to remain that way due to the short time left to get projects started and completed.
IMO - The UK is saying, "well let's have our bit of that under-spend back", and "don't include us in the next 7 year cycle because we won't be here".

You take the gun with six bullets, kill all the VC and then escape
We can say "we walk away" but they will still be want the money. The government have agreed that the UK should pay something. The arguement is over how much.
That still leaves the Irish border and the treatment of EU and UK citizens living in the UK and the EU.
All simple stuff according to Davies only it isn't especially when you have no plans and waste months you could have spent planning on a pointless and ultimately destructive election because you (May) got greedy and wanted a blank cheque to do what you liked for five years.
Whether anyone voted leave or remain doesn't matter now. We're leaving and we're all going to have to live with the consequences most of which were foreseen but dismissed as "project fear".
We probably don't have a Homer Simpson at the controls who can bring this monorail to a negotiated end now, because all we've had is the utter arrogance of the absolute cock wombles that are the Tory party.
This was always going to be a tall order regardless of who carried out negotiations, but our incumbent government are an embarrassment. I am amazed at the constant shit they keep coming out with.
I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if leaving will be a car crash, and I promise I try and stay as opened minded about the arguments put on here by brexit voters, but just in a practical sense it seems like there is going to be a lot of damaging fall out, and I would find it all quite funny as a fuck you to the Tory party, were it not potentially going to detrimentally impact so many normal people's lives
