EU Referendum

[MegaSteve]

Although I cannot stand the man Gove is about the only one I trust to deliver Brexit...

Anyone else will just prevaricate and we'll be in limbo for years and years...

 

[Pro Zach]

Exactly. Meantime the uncertainty is a problem. The tories need to stop eating themselves and get on with it.

I agree with this. They do seem to be turning a farce into a travesty of a farce.

Surely the Tories want more than a single issue PM?? Gove is unpopular with large swathes of the electorate. Electing him purely on his Brexit stance would be lunacy. I suspect that Leadsom is going to be the front runner soon enough.

Gove is so tied to the leave campaign that there is no way he can not do it but even he has already stated he won't trigger a50 this year. The next pm is screwed either way but will probably do further damage to the country while they try to manipulate the situation to their advantage.

Because both parties are in such a ridiculous state of waddarwegonnadonext would there be any benefit in a true coalition between the Cons and Labs to get the country together and move forward through the exit deal?


Just a thought......

I am no Tory and going on his performance, on Marr this morning, Gove is far from being of PM 'material'... As a leaver Gove is the only one I'd back to at least take the first steps to leave...

Anyone else will see , come the next GE, a house full of 'kippers...
And, please none of us really want to witness that...

I think Give has shot himself in the foot as a true candidate. I think he's been promised a major position behind May for the time being with the plan of taking over after her.
His actions won't get him elected, it was only done to scupper Boris. ( Just my opinion - nothing at all to back it up with facts...) 😉

Steady on, it's just an idea that popped into my head that might avoid the problems of the government being involved in the debate. I haven't actually put any thought into, if, or how, it would work. I posted it as an idea not a definite solution.

Much like the reason most people voted leave......

I''m sorry, it was a joke, it's just the temptation was too much for me, I'm shallow like that.

Haven't all politicians on both sides proved that this is their only point of reference and the 'What's best for the country' idea is a long way down their list of priorities?

Many have, yes, but not all.

I assume by 'country'you are talking for England and Wales there.

Also, finding it mildly amusing watching Ms Sturgeon swoon over Juncker who makes Blatter look like a decent honest bloke...

Clearly not learnt anything from her 2IC who by his own admission spent too long sucking on Donald's trump...

Yes...I know you are.

This was also a joke because I'm funny like that.

Anyone who says it wasn't funny is an idiot or a genius....just to avoid argument.

He was removed as education secretary and was kept away from the public during the last GE, mostly as he was electoral poison. So I find it vaguely amusing and very depressing that he is seen as a credible person to lead the country. But then again we are in very strange times.

 

[Imurg]

Heard Gove described as having the permanent look of a man who's farted in a lift and managed to pass the blame onto a small child.......

During the campaigning I mentioned his name and my Mrs, my daughter and her boyfriend googled him because they couldn't place him.
Queue 5 minutes tearful laughter.....

Ooh ooh. Quick.
Any of them looking to run the country??
