I thought she gave a great performance, cutting in from the left. Threw a great dummy on the right back then slotted it under the keeper as he came off his line.

Then ripped her shirt off, waved it round and round over head before getting cautioned by the man in black!

So PM how did you get on with the guy that two months ago you called, inexperienced, stupid and plain wrong?

Well... she went, the BBC and Guardian complain that she did.
Had she not, they would have scolded lack of action.
Anyone familiar with the "man in the arena" speech?

I am starting to get unhappy with her. BBC says she is setting up a trade talk with Turkey - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-38779669
Well, 1st she visits the US where the new president is manipulating the press with alternative facts, where journalists get arrested when covering a protest, ...
Now Turkey is next where journalists and opposition politicians get arrested on a regular basis, ...
I am going down to Ladbrokes and putting some money on North Korea being next.
I hope sh isn't trying to get any inspiration while she is talking to those guys.
My 1 hope on brexit is that the UK is putting some decency in front of pure deal hashing. Well, it looks like they are going for scraping the barrel instead.

Thanks for that, it's sobering to see the UK as other nations see us.

I can't believe she got suckered into holding hands with him.
What on earth were "her people" thinking allowing that to happen?
I can see it coming back to haunt her again and again and again and again.
It's a satirist's gift 😀

We have been selling arms to anyone who can afford to pay .
arms used against civilians.
arms used against our own soldiers.
its a bit late to be getting ethical.

Sounds like our PM did OK. Well done Ma'am.
But, if you can, please try and not look so blushingly coy when he is complementing you. And as far as him holding your hand. Do you think he'd try that on with Angela Merkel? Just be careful with him. He is devious and controlling, and will whisper sweet nothings in your ear to ingratiate himself with you.

Sounds like you have an intimate knowledge of him
It looked to me like he held her hand to support her down some steps.

If Governments too that line then we no country would do business with another. IMO your view is naive.

This may (ouch) well have been right, but I really can't believe that she committed (or was allowed to commit) such a schoolgirl error allowing herself to be photographed in a way that could be portrayed as otherwise.
Shows an appalling lack of judgement and or lack of modern media awareness.
If I was her I'd be counting my fingers and rings in case he pocketed one. Sly old dog

As I posted elsewhere - I do watch a lot of US political commentary on Youtube.
But fair enough - if you think he is actually straightforward and pretty transparent - though I'm not sure how these qualities fit with 'the great negotiator'.
And as this thread is about Theresa May - I'm actually being complementary to her. I'm guessing you can't actually believe that I could be.

Having watched the video of what happened shouldn't we be criticising those that are portraying it as something it isn't rather than Theresa May for what was to my mind something totally innocent. I'm sure that if we looked through videos of Obama, Cameron, Sturgeon, Blair or any other world leader we could take a still shot from that video and make it look like something it wasn't.

That's my point exactly. It probably was nothing at all, but the lack of any photographic evidence depicting possible similar moments with those you mention only serves to point out Mrs May's naive handling of such a potentially embarrassing situation. She has allowed herself to be done up like a kipper.
She needs to surround herself with people who are considerably more modern media savvy than the current encumbents in that position who have failed miserably.
Irrespective of how well she performed in the press conference someone needs to enlighten her on the longstanding concept of one picture saying more than 1000 words.

Or you are grossly exaggerating what actually happened as it suits your agenda.

Balderdash! You know very well that PMs are not elected by a General Election. Do you have problems understanding the way the British Parliamentary system works or are you just being obtuse to suit your agenda.
I also question your suggestion that this Nation was once great. Why is it not now great and if so what has made it less great?
