As Theresa May hangs on in spite of revolts and defeats, Matthew Steeples asks: ‘How much longer can this kitten heeled harbinger of disaster hang on?’
When shall we three meet again
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
Two stories to keep beside you
The Voice
Matthew Steeples feels sympathy for the croaky voiced Theresa May but suggests we’d all be better off if this ill woman was relieved of her duties Yesterday, in what can only be branded one of the worst performances by a Prime Minister in history, Theresa May croaked in Parliament. She sounded like a strangled […]
The May Turkey
Matthew Steeples suggests Theresa May has lost control and urges readers to support a People’s Vote and the Put It To The People march The phrase: “Like turkeys voting for Christmas” came to mind as Theresa May attempted to urge Parliament to “do its duty” yesterday. This hapless harridan yet again showed her […]
Macbeth (I, i, 1-2)
For Theresa May, like buses, defeats come in threes. In spite of wheeling out Andrea ‘Loathsome’ Leadsom – dressed yet again in her pink dominatrix studded leather jacket – to claim that the lousy non-deal the government had negotiated could still proceed, it has now become utterly clear that most MPs and more importantly the public have had enough.
Staggering on is all very well, but as Isobel Oakeshott pointed out on the BBC’s Politics Live this morning, Theresa May lost control many months ago. In fact, the minute this delusional woman called a General Election that was neither wanted or required, her cards became marked and her path to failure was confirmed.
Failing to respect the sovereignty of Parliament, however, was truly a stupid move and now, even in the highly, highly unlikely event that she wins on 11th December, Theresa May’s own party is obliged to ditch her. This hectoring vicar’s daughter yesterday failed as a Prime Minister as, in just a couple of hours, thrice she failed in the job’s key role – that of commanding a majority. Now, as the vultures, circle I again suggest it is time for a change of tack: Mrs May must go and she must go now.

Outside contenders to replace May
Ruth Davidson
In spite of the fact that she would need to become an MP in order to govern effectively, Ruth Davidson is extremely popular within the party. She speaks a lot of sense and reflects the modern age well.
Johnny Mercer MP
Sensible and pragmatic, Johnny Mercer could be the Conservatives’ Justin Trudeau. A former army officer and pin-up, here is a man who is a breath of fresh air.

Good suggestion in Johnny Mercer. The Party needs a breath of fresh air and he has ability and appeal.
No sexiness here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would not want Leadsome or Davidson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not send them Down Under!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Theresa May needs to deliver Brexit and she needs to deliver it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit……. Chuck out the immigrants like we do in Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favourite would be Gina Miller as the only one who can sort Brexit out. https://endthechaos.co.uk/
Sadly, Gina is not a Conservative supporter.
You are quite right. This has gone on long enough and all that is happening is that jobs are being destroyed and the economy left uncertain. Enough is enough.
Although we don’t like the three witches in Macbeth, we shouldn’t forget that they got it right every time!
Time for her to fall on her sword, do what’s best for the country, not your superannuation fund.
