Now I know the 160K odd retired colonels and the jam & jerusalem mob are a bunch of semi-senile old dodderers but why does it take them over 6 weeks to pick out one horse in a two horse race? We could have a result by the weekend. Does it take so long because they have to be roused from the dead?

Asking for a friend.

Another part of the nobber narrative is that once we have left the EU we will be able to control our borders. We have had 12 years of tory misrule and have had 'control' since before we left the EU and yet someone, not the conservatives of course, is responsible for tens of thousands of illegal immigrants being housed in luxury in hotels.

Who do you think is responsible for that [MENTION=13923]carlzeiss[/MENTION]? Jeremy Corbyn? I don't think that blaming your ingnorance (and nastiness) on your poor education will wash in the long run. I'd stick with the music threads if I were you. You are way out of your depth. Disappointing, too. With Das Reich gone I thought we might be spared the tedious tomfoolery .

Just back from a pleasant appointment with my hygienist and I find that I am being accused of " nastiness " If you check back through this thread you will see that I was responding to accusations of unsuccessful Conservative leadership candidates being accused of being " Bame Traitors " #13382 . Still haven't got to the gist of why this may be so . Seems to me to be rather condescending at best for some people to decide how others that they might perceive in their narrow mindset of being disadvantaged when in actual fact they have been rather successful to think and act .

As far as the accusation made on this thread by the same poster of the current government treating migrants crossing the channel on inflatable craft as criminals , still waiting for the evidence .

Would the members vote for someone of colour?

Yes. The last time I spoke to a racist conservative was down my pub neary 20 years ago. There are many reasons to worry about conservatives but, these days, racism isn't one of them (in my experience).

Still.....cosplay Thatcher....:lolol:

They get two votes as well!

They can change their minds and the new vote cancels the old

I am happy to retract 'nastiness' as you appear to be happy to accept the rest of my comments.

After the last 6 years we're once again getting the PM we deserve, I'm afraid. We handed in our "sensible country" card in June 2016 and now we're basically just being the class clown.

Grim but true, the public chose self harm and the downward spiral continues.

Little surprise ARM Holdings a world class chip designer formed and still HQ'd in Cambridge are now hesitant on a London listing. Too much political instability.

They can but Parliament is in recess on Thursday (Friday is constituents day) 6 weeks holiday because they all work so hard!

The irony is diversity has produced anything but progressive policy. I must admit its a useful cover that has worked well for them.

Rishi totally corrupted the polls when it wasn't going his way,, He and Liz should be thrown out of government, Shameful.

Government benches standing and applauding the Prime Minister after his last speech. I guess as knives aren't allowed in the house they had the extra hand to clap with. Us Brits do hypocrisy so beautifully.

Woah woah woah, I thought such concepts were the very antithesis of democracy and once a vote has been made it is FOREVER LOCKED IN NO BACKSIES?

There's a shortage of carers at the moment. Ironically due to Brexit.
