Everybody needs to calm down.
RBS rising.

May looked terrible yesterday.
I wonder if she will resign with ill health.
She is a type 1 diabetic who has to inject 4 times a day
and would fail any medical for a proper job.
And all of this aggro.

Who needs it?

Talking of Greek Gods ...


In the ancient Greek religion, Nemesis (/ˈnɛm<1;sɪs/; Greek: Νέμ&#949;σι`2;), also called Rhamnousia/ Rhamnusia ("the goddess of Rhamnous") was the goddess who enacted retribution against those who succumb to hubris.


Both Cameron and May have been undone by it.

Cameron for calling a referendum which he believed he could not lose. May for calling an election she thought she could not lose. She may not have technically lost it, but she now clings on by her nail varnish and is dependent on the DUP, to win the vote on the Queen's Speech -- a speech will have to distance itself from much of her manifesto.

British politics is littered with post WW2 examples of similar errors by former Tory Prime Ministers, leading to loss of office.

Maxk yes!! Lols see your preference for stirring up controversy is undiminished..you know very well that it would take an act above Herculean more akin to a Zeus intervention to achieve that...

It would require a new government as both main parties are for it as is indeed Brussels..

A British legal opinion needs to be overturned that article 50 can not be revoked..ask Leeds on the chances of that happening...

It will need to be agreed by all 27 members thus a new referendum undertaken...

Yes?...lols be serious..
;)

May was instructed to screw the election. She couldnt possibly be that stupid. Its all part of the plan to ditch Brexit

Royal Bank of Scotland Group (LON:RBS) stands to be worst affected among UK banks if Labour wins the general election due to the party’s plans to fully nationalise the lender, HSBC said.

Labour get in...RBS will be fully nationalised. It's in their mandate, apparently.

[careful] 11/6/2017 19:17

May is definitely going for a soft (realistic) Brexit.
Remainers are in key positions.
She was a remainer herself.
She need not pretend anymore.

If Labour get to power, as they will if the anti euro loonies are disruptive, we will have the softest of Brexits.
The Tories could get wiped out.
That is why they will pull together.

And that is what it is, a scare story.


note the date: 29 Feb 2016

[sux_2bu] 11/6/2017 17:31

More brexit scare stories, lol


Wax on - Wax off.

Meet the new Lord Chancellor:



British people will not be able to live abroad in France and Spain if the UK leaves the EU, a minister has claimed amid warnings that a “Brexit” would lead to a decade of economic chaos.

David Lidington, the Europe minister, warned that a British exit from the bloc would be a “massive&rdquo; risk and said “everything we take for granted about access to the single market” would be in question.

He warned that it could take Britain up to ten years to negotiate new trade deals with Europe after an exit.

After the election euphoria I thinks this will blow over.
Theresa will be O.K. with her sails trimmed, now we know her limitations.
Corbyn and his looney left will be in decline as from tomorrow.

Nothing will bring the Tories to their senses more than the prospect of being wiped out by Corbyn at the next election.

I think Brexit will be about the same as the present arrangements.
We will start to realise what a sweetheart deal we really had, and with our own currency and central bank thrown in.

Worry not, no need to panic.

[leedskier] 11/6/2017 16:19

Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the most liberal pro European of them all?

Damien Green, now de facto deputy PM and PM in waiting.

180 degree turn by TM.

The right wing nutjobs in the party will be committing seppuku.

Boris has one big problem.

Not only does look like a younger clone of the US President, he communicates in the same way too.

Come to think of it, Boris was born in the USA ;)

[maxk] 10/6/2017 23:20

It wont do her any good, she is fatally holed beneath the waterline.

Sacking the spads wont cure the problem, she was in charge of the spads, then took and acted on their advice.

Where was her judgement? Where was her common sense??


Teflon Treesa has finally come unstuck.



Boris is waiting in the wings (so the roomers have it)

[leedskier] 10/6/2017 19:57

Theresa May has appointed a new chief of staff to replace Nick Timothy.

He is Gavin Barwell, a Croydon MP snd ~Govt Minister until Thursday when he was voted out.

Firmly on the moderate wing of the Party. He campaigned to remain in the EU ahead of the referendum.

[sux_2bu] 10/6/2017 17:00

Bloody hell......just as well Labour didn't win the GE or holders here would have been well shagged.

These three paragraphs below written in the Telegraph by its business editor AMBROSE EVANS-PRITCHARD, sum up the views of many.

The best bit is that the economically illiterate special adviser -- TM's Rasputin == Nick Timothy, who spawned 'hard brexit', has today been sacked in a show down between the Tory Party and TM aka the Vicar of Bray.

-------

For liberal, free-market Brexiteers, the election shock is a gift from Mount Olympus. We are dancing cartwheels and quaffing our sparkling Kentish wines.

Theresa May’s plummeting star is an entirely unexpected chance to refashion British withdrawal from the European Union along different lines. It re-opens the possibility of a ‘NorwegianR17; solution or close variant, an option that she shut down prematurely without debate because it limits her ability to control inflows of EU workers.

Mrs May sees Brexit through the fatal prism of migration, borders, and criminal justice - the déformation professionnelle of the Home Office - strangely oblivious to the immense economic risks of pursuing a narrow strategy to the detriment of all else.
