I agree with that completely.
I pray that another one does come and Corbyn finishes them off once and for all. Even better if Johnson is in charge of them by then, one thing to beat the tories, another to beat them when they look incompetent.
 
...all of it apart from the last sentence.

May is toast. The Tories are in crisis. It's a sunny day. All is good.

May is PM, the Tories are in government, it's a sunny day. Labour lost, it was a wonderful defeat which will be told and retold for years to come, but they still lost and by tomorrow it may actually dawn on them.......
 
How does that work?

Surely the Tories have to agree for it to happen and I can't see them doing that for a long time.
Not sure to be honest, they or someone official in these sorts of things was forcasting it. Probably be tied into May getting kicked out i think.
 
Corbyn is still in charge of Labour, what's not to like.....

Corbyn has absolutely demolished May in recent weeks. What saved May was the fact that the likes of Brown & Milliband almost destroyed the Labour Party. Corbyn has begun to build it up into a serious credible force, and if I were you, I would be seriously worried if Corbyn continues to garner favour with the general public of Great Britain, such as has been evidenced by the result of this election. Be concerned, be very concerned...
 
Loads of people said the 2010 Conservative - Lib Dem coalition wouldn't last longer then a year either and would spell the end of the Tories. It didn't and I doubt this one will either.
 
...a world of difference, as you well know.

The Tories are done. Stick a fork in them.

I think we both know that's not true. Objectively, they have increased their vote share and are still the biggest party by quite a way, even if the lost seats. Their support isn't exactly crumbling before our eyes.

May IS done, though. Her shelf life is short. Her sole task now is to expend any political capital she has left to negotiate Brexit, or get as far as she can, then step aside for someone else. If there's one thing that The Tories are good at it is regenerating themselves, replacing ineffective leaders with more effective ones in order to fight future elections.

Ha Ha Ha Ha.

As deluded as that daft get just speaking outside Downing ST.

It's over. And the man you denigrated for years was the one to destroy the Tories.

Now THAT is funny.

Here's another one.

Give it up mate. The winds of change have blow a hurricane through your ranks.

To be fair i don't think anybody other than the 'politically ignorant' thought Labour were going to win outright yesterday. It would have been some achievement after the 2 year propaganda against Corbyn that the tories financed.

However to strip away the power the conservatives craved, that is a big result. The tories wanted massive evil changes to suit their agenda and instead got the country telling them to do one.

It would happen if more than likely she cannot get manefesto policies through I would suspect she will stand down more likely a Tory leadership challenge if it's chaos which it will be - the tories can stay in on the fixed term agreement I feel they will ditch May - if they go to the polls in October after a dodgy coalition- Labour would stand a very good chance indeed!
