The only concrete difference between Labour and Conservatives on Brexit is the customs union, I think the DUP also want to stay in it? so that idea will probably be scrapped but I don't see any reason for a second vote or evidence that support for leaving has changed. A lot of UKIP used to say they took more support from Labour than the Tories and it looks like they were right.

EU laughing at Theresa but it's no laughing matter to keep avoiding the fact that she's lost credibility. Has nobody in her party got the balls to tell her?

Did Corbyn not use bribery on the foolish minded young folk, to  gain enough votes to make this alliance necessary?

Excellent point Saddo, you've got him there. £11bn that free tuition bribe was going to cost. Cry

No matter what May or the Tories do, the only answer from the blind support on here, is to have a go about Corbyn.
Can she do no wrong?

The "bribery on foolish minded young folk" as you stupidly put it, is a return to free education that generations enjoyed, as well as being something Corbyn voted for, including against the Blair government. Added to which despite what has been spread in the Media. It wasn't only young people who voted Labour. The tipping point, that is the age at which a voter is more likely to have voted Conservative than Labour, is now 47 – up from 34 at the start of the campaign.

£11 Billion (or probably less) of money which could have been diverted back to the population from say, HS2 or Nuclear weaponry, or bombing Syria.

No money for anything but £100 million per DUP MP just to stay in power. MAY did this, not Corbyn.

So, without deflecting, is she wrong to do so or not?
Don't answer with a Corbyn rant. Just simply, is May right or wrong?

Not expecting any straight answer to a straight question.

Studyform, she is wrong, and brought this on all of us through a needless punt, I said so as soon as she called the election. I wouldn't trust, applaud or vote any one of em, they all had their hands in the till not long ago. As for free education, it still is for most. The poliversities are full of people who would be better off learning a skill or trade, they will never pay back their loans. Wasting money on third rate degrees is questionable I think.

I probably agree with most of that, saddo.
I would reduce the number of Universities which were created in the 80's and bring back career based stuff too!

None of which detracts from now being under the worst Prime Minister I have ever seen.

Its a pointless exercise , she displays breathtaking arragonce in her quest for a 80-100 majority and ends up cobbling together an arrangement with the DUP , its shambolic and humiliating

She shouldn't have taken the risk, that's easy to see with hindsight but she has gained two extra years for her party whether she leads it for that time or not. Corbyn will be rather old by then and I suspect he will give way to McDonnell before the next election.

By:

When: 26 Jun 17 19:18
We share the same birthday, 26th May but I am older than him.
He should be OK at 73 but has to consider that if elected he will be in power until aged 78.
Would he be able to maintain the pace and powers of concentration required to do the job?

Churchill was prime minister when he was 80, Gladstone 84, iirc.

Most of them were in their 60's

Corbyn is 68, 68 + 5 = 69   any shadow Home Secretary can work that out

You don't come across as being 70 something Foinavon, I thought you were much younger. I mean that as a compliment by the way, you're clearly one of the intelligent ones on here.
By:

Although I can remember Churchill as PM during the 1950s, I wasn't aware of what sort of a job he was making of it. Probably delegated everything apart from big decisions.

Fortunately, I'm still sound in body and mind.
