    OT - New Prime Minister now we need an election!

    So we have a new Prime Minister, elected only by her constituents and Tory MP's those so concerned about our Sovereignty and democracy must surely want a general election so the government has a genuine mandate?

    I'm no conservative voter, and no way did I want May running the Country but to have an election now the way things are would be a bit daft imo. Lets give her a chance to see what she can do. I must admit that I don't have much faith in her but we have to let May have her day! She might even push the self destruct button!

    Personally I don't think there's much of a mandate for either this government or the move to leave the EU at the moment Swale, but Andy F is probably right. Any sort of opposition is in such complete disarray at the moment - Angela Eagle ffs - that an election could be completely counter productive and would possibly only provide an opportunity for the wretched Arron Banks to create more bother.
    Frankly having seen our MP's at such close quarters recently, and especially the Tories childishly banging their desks prior to lining up for the photograph with their beloved new leader yesterday, I have to admit to increased sympathy for Guy Fawkes. There's some real talent in this country, unfortunately little of it is to be found in Westminster imo..

    And just how is that different to Cameron?

    You do know the difference between the republican system, such as the USA and a parliamentary system, such as ours, don't you?

    Beat me to it.

    Either way, an election now would only extend their stay in power, so if you're truly opposed, then best to lump it for a couple of years.

    And pray for angela Eagle to NOT be leader - she is so easy to get wound up, she sounded like an old fishwife arguing over a car parking space at Asda on the radio this morning

    You won't get an election, no matter how much Labour may squeal for one.
    Why should they anyway?
    Did Brown call one when he slipped into slime balls shoes? Useless **** that he was.

    Clarkson was right
