flounder
If she did resign I hear there's a job going at the Daily Wail that would suit her.

Interesting idea on pay gaps and explaining it though as usual action is better than headlines....
I’m left bemused as to how MayBot has lasted so long, that and the Lying BloHard and Davies.
Seems the more lies you spout and the harder you shout and point, the longer you last in this pathetic lying circle of bullies.
May - I think two issues. she has a real sense of "duty" and believes she is the only one who can deliver and unite the tories and also that no one actually wants to depose her now knowing that they would carry the can for the brexit shambles and the next election is going to be lost. They all want to be the next but one leader
I do feel a bit sorry for her in one way - it must be real mental torture for her but because of this sense of duty she just keeps ploughing on

Ive tried to feel a bit sorry for her, but despite my best efforts I really couldn’t
Agreed, she's put herself in this position. No sympathy !
No one else wants the job & fear of a Corbyn government keeps the rebels in line (even tho latest polls see a widening Tory lead)
yeah when gammon williamson is shaking you down for your dinner money its bad news
It's taxpayers who will give him that money. Ones like me.
She should just say we'll use some of the money we'll save from no longer being in the EU. That particular wheeze worked really well last Sunday...
It’s taxpayers who will give him that money. Ones like EVERYONE
.
FIFY
It's just a nice thing for her ministers to talk about
Caught the usual lines on Radio 5 this morning

The only condition is Labour not getting in, it's down to how they have managed the economy, then throw in some mumbles about other stuff and dodge the questions
At this rate just call me Dave will be back in office.
That clown should be dragged back from wherever he scuttled off to & forced to sort out this whole shambles that he started & if he's to inept to sort it (probably), then he gets sent to the tower.
Oh god, that video on the guardian is excruciating, I feel sorry for her again, now
I didnt know where to put this but, 'kin hell its scary days
I freely admit,” Karen freely admitted, “that when I started this job, I didn’t understand some of the deep-seated and deep-rooted issues that there are in Northern Ireland. I didn’t understand things like when elections are fought, for example, in Northern Ireland – people who are nationalists don’t vote for unionist parties and vice versa.”
Nope...Nope....Nope...Nope - I don't believe anyone, especially a politician could be so immensly ****ing ignorant to the point of being way below sub human intelligence of the above facts.
That must be a parody, if not then whoever recommended her for the position deserves to be bitch slapped by every single person in northern ireland, and as for Karen Bradley? - there's nothing that can be done for her stupidity apart from euthanasia.
Imagine the Interview that she must have had with May. Did she admit (freely obvs) that she knew nothing about NI politics when she was offered the job? Did she start at the Wiki page? Pop along to Waterstones for a copy of "101 things you didn't know about sectarianism"
****ing embarrassing
Wow. That's... special, even by Tory standards.
I just don’t get it. If a normal person (a prole perhaps like me) even interviewed for a job and had no idea about it, they’d just be laughed out of the room. How anyone can actually accept such a job and then also be stupid enough to reveal they haven’t got the first clue about is also staggering. A new low.
I’ve read ‘Provos’, ‘Loyalists’ and ‘Brits’ by Peter Taylor and watched a few documentaries about ‘The Troubles’, and this makes me infinitely more qualified for the job than the actual incumbent(?) What the actual ****?
I’d give her a Tricolor and a Union Jack put her in the middle of the Falls or the Shankhill, telling her which one it is, and ask her to pick a flag that she then has to walk the length of the road waving enthusiastically. Fifty-fifty is better odds than she deserves, so I’m being generous.
Yeah but if all you have to pick from are Tory MP's.....
There you go an excuse for her. Just the one mind you.
She was born in 1970, though, for Christ’s sake.
How can someone elected to high office not have at least absorbed something over all that time? Hunger Strike? Gibraltar? Brighton Bomb? Birmingham Six? How can none of this have gone in?
Bloody useless. Closeted, glib, complacent fools.
Hunger Strike? Gibraltar? Brighton Bomb? Birmingham Six? How can none of this have gone in?
Was that the prequel?
Well Jennifer Lawrence does make me quiver so thanks for that, at least.....
Summed up perfectly, as always by Marina Hyde
Karen Bradley routs her rival imbeciles with Ladybird guide to Northern Ireland
those dastardly plotters are at it again, Tory Mps apparently whatsapping this to each other.......
I truly despair of a country where JRM and BoJo are the top two candidates for PM.
Its mind boggling that anyone other than JRMs immediate family looks at him and thinks "That's our man"
I'm guessing this thread has become somewhat redundant?
Dunno, has she?
I did just have to check she hadn't done the deed!!
It's only a matter of time.
Ya’ gone n got me all excitable.
Is dissapoint.
For all her many, many faults, she doesn't seem the type to head off to Nice and put her trotters up when things don't go her way.
What a clusterwhatnot though, you know when we're in dark times when the Hardcore Left of Labour is working with the Hardcore Right of the Tories to stick the knife in.
I'd much rather she stays as long as possible. "Strong and stable". It's real-time "The thick of it".
She'll cling on to her place in no10 with her fingernails as the 1922 committee drag her out.
Meanwhile who's next ?

How are Rudolph the red nose reindeer and frosty the snowman polling?
That's pretty impressive work for the Conservatives!
Its almost as if she's being deliberately incompetent to scupper Brexit without making it look deliberate. Could it all be really a genius ploy??
This is peak Theresa May. She says she's standing down before the next election. MPs say, do you mean in 2022 or do you mean if there's a snap election. She says, I'm ruling out a snap election. They say, well, OK, but you ruled out the last snap election. She says, it wouldn't be a good idea to have a snap election. They say, yes we know, but the last one was an incredibly stupid idea and you did it anyway. She says, nothing has changed. They say, does that mean you'd still call a stupid snap election that you've ruled out, just like last time? She gets confused.
Someone takes control and breaks her out of the divide by zero error, and says, OK, but if there were a snap election, would you still be leader for that? And she says, yes, I will be leader for the snap election. That I've ruled out. But I will not be leader for the next election, after the snap election which isn't happening, I'll stand down before that one.
And today in PMQs, while being battered by Corbyn she accidentally said that the "meaningful vote" had already happened and was the referendum, and that if he wanted her to confirm a new date for the vote she just cancelled out of total cowardice, it'd be the 29th of March.

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard this theory over the last 24 hours...
Nah, May was this incompetent as Home Sec
For some reason people keep forgetting how bad she is at running things, it's just her SOP
We're in the bonkers position where if only say 1/3rd of her MPs are willing to risk bringing down their own government to get rid of her, it'll be hailed as a sign of strength 🙄
C’mon lads...
Has she resigned...?
Y
OR
N
Didnt Maybot 1.0 soon to be maybot 2.0 want to be able to let gchq tap everyones phone or internet at will?
Could it all be really a genius ploy??
I think we are sort of hoping it's a genius ploy just to reassure ourselves that someone somewhere actually knows what they are doing 🙁
