She needs to get working on getting under Corbyn's skin. No more trying to be polite. He is ripe for tearing apart. To call him two faced is being kind.

Close.

If 10 had switched sides, the No's would have it.

But on to Brexit. Hope it is as glorious as folks are hoping.

Fingers crossed.

He looked it a few minutes ago. Bad for him to fire a gun like that and completely miss the target.

Secretary of State Michael Gove's speech on the government's behalf (and against the opposition) was epic. Really great. I could easily see him as Prime Minister in the future.

Backstabber Gove? Too many enemies. He's a good politician, but likes to gossip too much.

I will take your word for that. I am not very familiar with Michael Gove. But his speech before the no confidence vote was truly excellent. He is a real statesman.

Apparently this is allowed by law.

Not a word commonly used in American English..... Prorogation

Bwahaha. I think that might be too clever by half.

No, she needs to bite down like a bulldog and hold on for dear life. The strategy now for her is to run out the clock, although that might not be as easy as it sounds.

If she hangs on, she will be spoken of in song, legend and lore for generations to come. She will be a hero, although it may take many people in the UK a little while to realize it.

What she needs to do, and what she will do, are not the same thing.

I think Theresa May might try something inordinately stupid, and lose what little good will she retains.

May's biggest weapon - Her opponents don't have a competing plan that any majority would support.

Corbyn just neutered himself. There's nobody left.


Amazingly, May is still running the show.
