    Soon to be gone, and completely forgotten. We then have to fork out another massive ex priministeral superannuation payment, along with all the other perks, for life. Now that I think about it, it’s probably a small price to pay to see her go. It’s a great pity they aren’t paid according to their performance, in her case she would be owing the tax payer.

    Be careful what you wish for!
    Theresa has been handed a turd by David Cameron, and, if nothing else, you have to admire her tenacity in trying to complete the task that was asked of her.
    My biggest fear is that we shall end up with a No deal Brexit, Corbyn winning a general election, and us all living in mud huts in what used to be our back gardens, whilst a Marxist Government nationalises the banks, utilities and other services without compensation for the current (private pension fund) owners.
    Whilst crouching on a street corner with a Costa Coffee cup begging receptacle, I shall contemplate the self serving, treasonous MPs who failed to vote in the best interests of their country, but gleefully watched disaster unfold upon the people that they were purportedly paid to serve ,in the expectation that chaos may further advance their own political ambitions.
    Perhaps Corbyn will have lined up said political opponents against a wall and have had them shot by his friends in the IRA, unconstrained by the ties of European Law. But that would be only the most meagre crumb of comfort in the economic apocolypse that our country would then be engulfed in.
