Yep I’d agree she certainly is. How about this as a conspiracy, do you think she was put in place to destroy the Tories? I’ve not read that anywhere just surmising as that poll shows destruction for the party.

We already have a ‘People’s Vote’. It’s on the 23rd May.

You'll all be shocked, shocked, to hear that talks between Labour and the Tories have broken down. Quite amused by Corbyn's letter to May. He's actually thrown a first punch and it's landed (albeit her defences are down anyway).

I don't see Corbyn's letter as either throwing or landing a punch at all.

...also, his point that her imminent departure and the potential for a successor to not honour any agreement will be the soundbite that gains traction.

Must have known this before entering talks. Total waste of time then.

I can clearly remember every Prime Minister all the way back to Harold Macmillan and Theresa May is by far the worst PM

One day we will all laugh about this and no-one will be admitting they were a Brexiteer. It is akin to going to a party nowadays and some geezer keeps on playing Gary Glitter records.

Swap Brexiteer with Remainer and your post might be half funny.

What I can't believe is that the Bill is having a 4th go. It's similar to a football manager having 3 relegations and saying we will win next time trust me.

She has again said one thing and done the opposite with regard to the soldiers in Northern Ireland. There cannot be any trust left.

What is most shocking, is that many in her party (MP's) nor herself can really see this.

Looking at what Farage is going to do next, is going to change politics. Which can only be good. Especially if the Tories go for a remain pm, the party will be dead.

Come the next general election and it will be the same old thing ''Well I would like to vote Liberal or Green but that will let the Tory's in, so I shall vote for Labour even though I prefer the other two !!'' or ''Well I would like to vote for the Brexit Party ( if it is still going by then ? ) but if I do. then I will let in the labour, so I shall vote Conservative to stop Labour getting in, even though I don't really like them !!'' I voted for the alternative vote ( not perfect but better than the first past the post we have in place now ) when offered in 2011 and it was beaten by 68% against to 32% for. So its no good the public complaining about the voting system, the 2 big parties will NOT give the public another chance to make a fairer and more representative system of voting. Simply a case for both parties of ''The self preservation society'' !
Meanwhile May just cannot do the decent thing and resign, she is still clinging on for another vote, this time with apparently various options to vote
for. So thanks a lot Theresa, if any part of your rumoured amended bad deal gets through, then the next Prime Minister is saddled with it.
As Ian Blackford of the SNP said ''The only thing we’ve learned from today’s latest fudge from the 1922 Committee is that Theresa May is so incompetent that she can’t even resign properly.''
