Theresa May - Not up to the Job of PM?

[User62651]

Just watched Mays brief interview on SkyNews. Didn't answer a single question, didn't acknowledge any kind of problem with her authority, has she learned nothing at all?
Think a little contrition might have helped her but no, act as if nothing has happened and answer no questions. Absolute liability for the Conservatives now.

Oh she learned all right. Remember, when she 1st started she visited Trump and Erdogan. She learned from the best.

She expressed sorrow for the MPs that had lost their seats and hence jobs and livelihood - but I don't recall hearing her actually admitting and accepting responsibility for their losses.

Watched that Sky piece and had a feeling of deja vu but couldn't quite place what it was until I remembered.

The thing that threw me off the scent was that there was no John Sergeant saying, "I have the mic, it's here Prime Minister."

And so how are we doing with our dear Prime Minister? Not hearing that much from her since the election are we - and no sign of her on any of the politics progs over the weekend. Currently not scoring that highly on the 'doing well' scale for me. Maybe she's focussing today on baking some buns for tea and buns with Arlene Foster.

Ah - just heard that she heading off to the HoC to meet with the 1922 Committee. Good luck Theresa - oh to be a fly on the wall of that meeting.

Expect some of Boris's lieutenants will ensure details are leaked negatively in order to weaken PM and ease his path into No.10. There will be over 300 Tory MPs there, she can't keep them all quiet!

The common theme today is that whilst the conservative mp's are fuming with TM apparently not one fancies another election. The public would be even more hacked off and the JC bandwagon may pick up even stronger. TM may survive a bit longer on that basis as we are into turkeys and Christmas territory.

So in effect.......

It's all very well expressing humility and stating that as she messed up she'll fix it - but how the heck does she do that? Has The Supreme Leader morphed in The Doctor, and so can jump in her Tardis to go back in time and do things differently? I don't think so. What is done is done.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall...

Bit childish.

Which bit is childish? Many nursery rhymes are allegorical. You are not suggesting that I am equivalencing TM with Humpty Dumpty are you? I hope not as that is really reading a bit much between the lines.

I am simply saying that - like Humpty Dumpty - the Tory Party manifesto, majority and approach to Brexit are all lying broken - and not easily - if at all - put back together again by TM - no matter how much she might want to and tries. I thought that that was rather obvious.

These parts are a bit childish! You would come over more credible if you stopped making these silly comments, they make you seem a bit paranoid.

Why not post like the blue highlighted text, you would then come across as a bit more credible.

Am I the only one thinking you two sound like Andrew Pierce and Kevin Maguire? You're a double act.

Honourable thing to do would have been to go, she's now an ineffective dead weight re moving the country forward as her own cabinet, EU negotiators and the electorate are all thinking she's weak and her time is short so why listen to her catchphrases about anything. We need a new leader now for focus even if that has to be Boris.

Really?

If it was Corbyn or Sturgeon he'd be shouting hallelujah!

More blinkers than the 3:30 at Kempton.

I am merely making an observation on May's stated intent to fix what she has broken.

She cannot fix an election result; she cannot fix a lost parliamentary majority; she cannot fix the fact that she depends upon a 3rd party for a majority to get her Queens Speech and other legislation through; she cannot fix that she is going to have to scrap much of what she would have had in the Queens Speech; and she cannot fix that her 12 point Plan for leaving the EU no longer has anywhere near majority support in the HoC.

None of these things she can fix. She cannot return them to as they were before. She can perhaps mitigate the impact of them on herself and her party - but fixing?

So like Humpty Dumpty having fallen off the wall - all The Supreme Leader's horses and all The Supreme Leader's men cannot put Humpty together again.

It's allegory for goodness sake.

The Prime Minister's net favourability score has fallen from +10 in April to -34 , which is the level the Labour leader was on in November last year.
