Theresa May will not lead us into next election, say top Tories

Theresa May said that it was not in the nation's interest to call a general election. A comment that she repeated frequently.

In June of this year, she called a snap general election, almost four years earlier than the 2020 scheduled date. During that general election campaign, she said that "nothing has changed", when announcing a "U turn" on the conservative manifesto commitment on the so called dementia tax as part of the social care policies. Yesterday, (31st August), Theresa May said that she is “here for the long term” and will remain Prime Minister into the next parliament. Today, it is abundantly clear that "Senior Tories", Party Grandees, Conservative MP's and many conservative members have rejected her assertion and are seeking to replace her as soon as possible.

The Prime Minister has been in difficulties since June of this year as her untenable, weak position has become weaker by the day. Her performance as Prime Minister over her period in office has been poor and has declined even further since her disaterous general election campaign and result. The people of this country deserve better from a government, particularly during this time of Brexit negotiations. We must expect a change of leadership in the conservative party very soon, followed by another general electionperhaps as early as February of next year. A lame duck government, propped up by 10 DUP MP's in the House of Commons is not good for the country and must be replaced without delay.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe...

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria. This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a bab...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
