    here's something for you lot to have a rant about...

    this from a one time tory mp:

    "Queen's Speech delayed, I see!!! I can see Theresa having a QS without a formal alliance with the Unionists and either scraping through as they abstain, or losing. If she loses, Corbyn will be appointed Prime Minister and given the chance to form a government.

    The risk is, that he is a Leninist and never gives up power. His record in holding onto the levers of power has been demonstrated in his own party. He is shameless. If the result is another immediate election the Tories will enter it leaderless and be smashed. My student politics instincts - which are his - would be to catalyse a situation where there is another election, then sweep to power amidst Tory disarray. He will be fighting from a platform of strong and successful leadership. Unbelievable, but true."
