Anyhow I'm relieved that Boris is out of it, all that jovial front meant that either he's an idiot (I don't think so) or a two faced cnut. However Gove is a backstabbing t**t who can't be trusted to run the country either.
My money is on May.
As you say, a very interesting week in politics!
I just wonder if Boris is smarter than everyone gives him credit for - negotiating the Brexit will be a painful, complicated and tedious process. You won't get much support from the voting public while that is going on, so why not just bide your time and jump into the fray next time? :wink:
Really cannot stand Gove - he's just another version of Osborne! Slippery scheming opportunist with zero charisma - would pretty much prefer anyone to Gove!
As for Theresa May - NO, NO, NO! She supported Remain - why on earth would anyone trust her to negotiate Brexit when she didn't even want it to happen?
I could see her working out how to get us "trapped" into staying!As so often in politics it seems to come back to the "least worst" option! Maybe Liam Fox (if he is behaving properly these days)!
Frightening as this scenario may be, at least there is no credible opposition at the moment! :lol:
Whoever gets to be PM they ought to give Farage a peerage and let him do the dirty work - saves them getting too involved with it!
We just seem to have a vacuum with no real leaders right now - almost as if nobody ever thought the vote would go this way!
Personally wish IDS had stood - he supported Brexit and is very calm and capable (I know he was leader once before but I think he got the job too soon and in a no-win situation).
Whatever happens, we are in for an exciting roller-coaster ride!
