so in summary,
Brexit has toppled two conservative prime ministers (again)
I've lost count of how many ministers have resigned
Dozens of large companies have left
Thousands of jobs left with them
The pound has weakened
The DUP fuckwits have controlled the fate of the UK and europe
There is a likelihood that Boris Johnson will be the next prime minister- https://i.kym-cdn.co…hans_glib
- This isn't a fair analysis.Morning_star
- what's unfair?lowimpakt
- Brexit didn't 'Topple' two prime ministers. Ministers have resigned from Cabinet jobs not as MPs. They are all still members of parliament. The pound lost ...Morning_star
- ...it's strength way before brexit. Whilst the DUP have influence they aren't in control of anything. There is no way Boris will be PM. Ever.Morning_star

'Brexit has toppled two conservative prime ministers (again)'
David Cameron is shockingly, astoundingly criminally stupid for agreeing to a referendum to begin with, for allowing this to happen. Either that, or he did this on purpose to create the sort of chaos we're seeing in the UK. No-one in their right minds could possibly think this would have gone smoothly.
And as much as I loathe Theresa May, in a sort of way, I also feel sorry for her. David Cameron throws a live grenade in the bin, and she's the one to deal with the aftermath of the explosion. Like he set her up to fail.
In many ways, this situation reminds me of Canada's Brian Mulroney (cunt) and his successor, Kim Campbell. He left her a proper fucking mess, and she was never able to make it go away. She was also set up to fail.
- May chose to be Prime Minister. She knew she'd have to deal with brexit and thought she'd immortalise herself as a Tory hero by delivering it.Fax_Benson
- at least Cameron did fuck off, having promised to.Fax_Benson
- but yeah, he should never have done it.Fax_Benson
- I feel sorry for May until I remember her political recordlowimpakt

Sometimes when posting I'm taken back to the first page of this thread, it's funny how it started

"...handed the responsibility over to his successor.
And as the day wore on, the enormity of that step started to sink in: the markets, Sterling, Scotland, the Irish border, the Gibraltar border, the frontier at Calais, the need to continue compliance with all EU regulations for a free market, re-issuing passports, Brits abroad, EU citizens in Britain, the mountain of legistlation to be torn up and rewritten ... the list grew and grew."

And because Theresa May is an irredeemable cretin:
'May hopes to hold fourth vote on Brexit deal'
- lowimpakt1
ah sure fuckit.......
on the day brexit was due to happen the Vote Leave campaign finally admits it broke the law. This was done by Theresa May’s closest advisor & one of her ministers.

also, Sam Coates from the times reporting that dozens of MPs scheduled a training session on what the customs union is. It'll be delivered by from some trade experts.
more evidence you've been fucked over by criminal and deeply incompetent fools with posh accents and personal wealth to burn.
