    O/T Theresa May Speech

    Utterly cringeworthy and painful to watch. All this spluttering and hacking thats all we are going to remember from this robotic speech. After the P45 incident she appeared to have spluttered to pieces. Awful.

    She's always previously been a decent speaker of great clarity so I put this down to either illness or an anxiety attack.

    I've had to do a lot of presenting during my working career but about four years ago I was in a presentation at Amazon's Uk head office and in a very dry,air conditioned room my throat suddenly felt like it was closing up and I had a terrible coughing fit.

    Even drinking water didn't help because the anxiety brought on just amplified the problem.

    Not a great speech anyway but I did feel sorry for her because it's not the sort of thing someone else can take over from you on.

    The real political ranters like Hitler and Corbyn never seem to stop for breath let alone have a coughing attack.

    I'm so looking forward to us becoming the new North Korea,we can all stand for hours clapping at Kim Jon Corbyn's five day speeches in 4 years time.

    Don't like Theresa May as too soft and needs to listen more i.e to the under 25's. Corbyn though is a maniac and the biggest bull ****er in years. Diane needs to sit on his face again

    The self-publicist so-called comedian wants a kick in the bollux. He probably knows too well what a P45 looks like.
    (Wonder if he was set up by that other comedian, Johnson. It's about his level of humour).

    Regardless of any political views, the level of security for a UK PM was woeful. I'd have liked to have seen this clown pulling his P45 stunt at a US presedential event. He'd have been knocked to the floor by the secret service spilling his teeth no doubt in the process.

    You're dead right on these points Stripes,it just shows how complacent security forces can be.

    I always get the impression that would be assassins look for extravagant ways to achieve their goals when in truth,episodes such as yesterday's show it's the simple plan that gets you the closest to even the most powerful people.

    Michael Fagin satin the end of the Queen's bed FFS......the first time a man had been in there for 30 years at that point!

    Absolutely right Stripes.

    Simon Brodkin (aka the Lee Nelson character) does stand up and has also worked for both Channel Four and the BBC.

    Below is a link to his previous ‘pranks’.

    Mr Brodkin is said to have gained access to the event with a fully accredited pass.

    Just speculating and not saying they're directly responsible, but an (admittedly very quick) internet search makes me think Leanna Smith from Channel Four and/or Lucy Atkinson of the BBC (named in the link below) might be getting a knock at the door in the not too distant future.

    No matter which political party you have leanings towards, how she can be criticised for losing her voice, an idiot handing her a P45 or technical faults is beyond me. If you want to fault her on the content of her speech, then fair enough, but not on the above.
