The repeated threats to withdraw and his way of dealing with Russia. Afghanistan before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Well, I think NATO countries should contribute enough to NATO to be able to defend ourselves even if USA leaves the organization. In other words, in case of something bad, we can still defend ourselves even if USA deserts the alliance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLegend Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) Raab's the kind of person who looks he's about to vomit everytime he talks about the poor. He's talked more bullshit down the years on TV than Boris or a Peter Bone type. Ann Marie is just, your standard Brexiteer. As for Esther, she's worse than your bullshiteer types. She's pure evil I'm convinced. Awful human being. This PMQ is like the country is at war. Edited November 15, 2018 by AtariLegend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Theresa May have enough support in the UK Parliament to move forward with this Brexshit deal? If the answer is no. Then she has to resign. Or, as she put it yesterday, go hard Brexit or no Brexit at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLegend Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 She's getting kicked out the door, this deal isn't going anywhere. Just worried about who's replacing her. Wonder what she's saying at 5. A normal PM would be resigning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she can still get support from DUP for the right amount of $$$. She could still get Tory votes telling them that the alternative is Corbyn as PM. And she could still get hard brexiters on her side if she threat them with no Brexit at all. She came up with this kind of things before.

wasted Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I think in history books it will say in 2018 in the UK there were men and they dicks didn’t work, so they left the EU, then they thought no maybe not, then a lady said yes we will. And they checked they nuts and guess no they had no nuts and they retreated to play cricket and drink gin in fields of sheep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One interesting twist on all this is that apparently there's an unofficial Tory Party rule that anybody who survives a vote of no confidence cannot be challenged again for a year. Johnson cannot "challenge" May for the leadership. The only way the Tories can change their leader is through a confidence vote. It would take 48 letters to Graham Brady, the chair of the 1922 Committee, to trigger one. If May won, she would be granted a year's immunity from further challenge, if she lost, then she would be forced to resign and be barred from standing in the ensuing contest. So perversely this may well mean that if she is challenged and wins a leadership contest that she will be bulletproof for the next 12 months and thus in a better position to push though her Brexit deal.

Lets just say she survives her Party revolt. Tories don't have a majority. I think DUP is her bigger problem. Unless those DUP MP complaints happen to be a mere charade.

During that period May is going to negotiate a new trade agreement with the EU. I wouldn't be surprised if she is already doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
