You've had 2 years to come up with a plan but you didn't take negotiations seriously or urgently. Instead you've been focusing on the "optics" back home.

You knew all along the timetable was about coming up with a plan in Autumn 2018 that the EU needed to agree to. Unfortunately, that was entirely beyond the competence or interests of you and your useless Brexit team.

Just resign.

Ireland is the stumbling block they are not giving anything.


Perhaps if the UK stopped their occupation of the a quarter of Ireland it would help

Ay caramba! That's a 20-pager right there.

I was expecting a discussion of May and her cack team's incompetence to be a couple of posts, a page at the most.

I would sh1t myself laughing if, having voted to leave the EU and stay in Great Britain, Glassers ends up in an independent Scotland that's an EU member.

I think it's a lack of brains rather than the presence of balls.

You can put her and her entire Brexit team led by the clownish Davis on the extreme left side of this graph.



Shouldn't that be "know-nothing"?

Or was it an ironic joke by the makers of that graph?

I normally swerve political threads as I have little to add, but that speech was classic 'Yes Minister' material. Going on the logic of 'the harder the rhetoric, the meeker the actions' (or vice-versa), she could be setting up the mother of all climb-downs with the EU.

Generally this rule holds good - it will be interesting to see how this example plays out.

I'd put her on gardening leave and just let the departments of government run themselves. On the world stage, we should let the tiller go idle rather than having her steer us onto the rocks.


If she had any moral fibre she would resign tonight

The only way he'd possibly be PM is by offering a second referendum, which I can't see happening!

Exactly.

On a related note, nothing over the past two years gives me any confidence that we have the calibre of leaders and politicians to stand up for ourselves on our own merits. I think being part of the EU and the strong single market has shielded us from our own incompetence.

Im not defending her...

....but everyone else ran for the hills on the day of the vote and ever since, so at least she had the 'balls' to give it a go.

It was all very predictable that the negotiations would be a mess.

A remainer managing the Brexit negotiations? ya, that'd go well.
