It's about time!

Now, if she could just convince DJT to resign as President, the world would be an even better place.

An extremely small part of me wants Boris Johnson to be PM so that the UK can feel the pain of Americans who have to deal with a total idiot as a leader. Then I remember that I wouldn't wish that on any country, least of all the UK. I'd say I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, but my own father voted for a total idiot as POTUS. Meaning the enemies of freedom are absolute morons.

Didn’t one of the original Munchkins sue a British radio station for playing that after Thatcher died?

Finally, she couldn't find a good deal. I'm happy she resigned honestly.

She's going, but the Brexit idiocy is still alive and with support.

You don't know anything about the EU.

Thank God.

It's her own fault. All she had to do was deliver Brexit, which she promised to do. She failed.

I know enough to know Britain is facing an economic disaster after believing they could leave the EU but retain their rights and privileges of a member nation.

Probably going to be completely wrong on it, but I just have a sneaky feeling that Gove is going to be PM.

If Johnson makes the last 2 then he will win, but the MP's generally make little pacts between themselves to put moderate types up as the final 2. The early favourite has only ever won it once I read.

The 'experts' said there would be an immediate recession if we voted to leave and tens of thousands of jobs lost. So you know propaganda from the establishment and their media mouthpieces. Like i said you don't know anything about the EU and calling people stupid who voted to leave the rotten institution is a good example of why people voted. Working class people are sick of liberals telling them they know best.
