She really has got a touch of the Frank Spencer about her at the moment. I cannot see her recovering from here.
To be honest it is not really a laughing matter. We got the Keystone Cops at Labour and Laurel and Hardy in the Conservatives then we have. The real fear is not really the abandonment of the middle because we need some drastic change but what we could get. |

I hear you Leopard.
Unfortunately WD, the socialists will one day experience their red pill moment. I hope it will never come but that's wishful thinking. |

I believe she even lifted some of her speech from an episode of the West Wing.
Plus the music didn't go down well with everyone. Things really have not gone very well at all has they! florence welch Verified account @flo_tweet 2h2 hours ago More Today's use of 'You've Got The Love' at the Conservative party conference was not approved by us nor would it have been had they asked. |

Had to laugh at one BBC commentator saying this was her Neil Kinnock moment (ie tripping in the surf)
WALOR. Gave a great speech despite her sore throat. |

Posts gone missing again , tory patrol squads on tonight again
|
|
By:
must of been hell , listening on radio
|
|
By:
Hasn't taken you long to spout yer rubbish again anxious.
Although I suppose tory patrol is an improvement on tory fanboys and tory spivs. so on reflection you may have learned something from your ban. |
|
By:
Akabula you seem very well informed about such matters , i did read a bit on that pj harvey thread on you tube , you were very popular with whoever was in control on there
|
|
By:
Amazed that you have escaped bans over the last few years considering the garbage you post
|
|
By:
I'm surprised as well given how many times you've pressed the report button on my posts.
|
|
By:
Ive never reported anybody im not that childish
|
|
By:
No but yer childish enough to cast aspersions on other posters.
|
|
By:
What aspersions ?

If any of you have chaired meetings or given presentations, as I have, you would feel sympathy. If you have a cold and the air in the room is warm and dry, sometimes stale from having been exhaled by many people then these things can happen no matter how many sips you take or sweets you suck. I've done hundreds in my time at work. And yes I've experienced similar. But feel sympathy for May ? You have to be kidding !! |

The poor woman is out of her depth and has been from day one. She is an awkward geeky woman who has led a sheltered like at the vicarage. She is not a bad person but she has no empathy with people outside of her own circle. Even before today's disaster her body language has been of someone who wants out . She will not sleep tonight for sure and maybe for sometime to come. Resignation would be humiliating but she will want out asap. Who wouldn't, there are no positives.
Brexit, Boris et al, Corbyn,The Ulster Unionists,The Scottish Nationalist,Immigration,The economy. She aint tough enough to cope with it. A leadership challenge would do her a favour. |
|
By:
She is English, that is how English people used to be .
It's a good thing , people like that are trustworthy . She can work through the Brexit negotiations slowly and carefully and calmly. |
|
By:
Some people can find it difficult in a new job, or appear to at first.
But it is time that counts, after all nothing has been decided yet with May as pm. |
|
By:
she is little more than a puppet , held in place by others with a need
for a leader to carry out their bidding. she is pm, then she can retire, and somebody else will get a go |
|
By:
CrystalHunt is correct.
A female John Major. |
|
By:
Surprised the audience could keep a straight face listening to her spout a load of watered down Labour policies and passing them off as her own.
|
|
By:
the funniest part of the last leg is that only right whingers watch it to complain
Never a truer word spoken. Watched about 5 minutes and just don't think it's funny so not watched it since. Am constantly kept up to date on what goes on though from Gregory, disgusted from Walton-on-Thames. If the show could make me laugh as much as these sops watching it to just get annoyed then I might tune in again. |

You have to be kidding !! I don't expect you to feel sympathy for her, I expect you to criticise her policies and leadership. Those who laugh at her for things beyond her control are little different to those who laugh at peoples' disabilities in my opinion. |

18 meetings,29 interviews in the previous days nosign ,talk of been unwell,cold etc,maybe the nerves,situation took over,if she,d been suffering surely all the water,honey,gargles,pastilles etc,etc would have been on the lectern readily available for her

By:
Her gang misappropriated the Tory leadership by setting up Andrea Leadsome into mentioning May's inability to have children and using it to monster her.
She subsequently withdrew from the contest. If it had gone to a vote amongst Tory members, Andrea would have won. Not secure ground on which to start the job of PM. |
|
By:
There's very little that can be said in defence of the utter hopelessness that is Theresa May, but the fact that it's not Leadsom in that position is one of them.
|
|
By:
? A bit cryptic ?
|
|
By:
Hardly cryptic. May managed to at least give the impression of being a competent Home Secretary. Nobody could accuse Leadsom of appearing a competent anything.
|
|
By:
A bit of a polite description of May's performance as HS but in a nutshell, yeah.
|
|
By:
'Tally Ho' Leadsom is a fox.
Sorry, Fox Hunt Supporter. |
|
By:
May was a poor choice, she inspires nobody but I agree with PoP that Leadsom looks even worse.
|
|
By:
its fairly obvious imo that its power through the back door from her husband,what sort of husbands sends her wife out everyday exposing her to ridicule and a laughing stock,at opening up about their private past in an attempt to gain a few symp votes, the bloke must be a cold heartless fish

you kidding?
