well people slag her off for being unelected.. cant win really can she

But we don't elect prime ministers so that argument is nonsense.

Fatty Holmes saying its to do with her health

Her secretary has just called the Sky presenter Adam Boulton "Bunter" and threatened to sue him if he continues with speculation about her health, charming

whilst we dont technically, Most vote on the basis of the party's leader and polices

Strange move. Can't see the UK going another 5 years without a general election after this with the two Brexit milestone dates in 2019 and 2021, plus she's just given the SNP another chance to hammer their point home about indyref2, if it's just out of a desire to be an "elected PM" (not that such a thing exists) then it shows a shocking amount of insecurity.

Labour will come out and say they'll hold another Brexit referundum if they win, i reckon its the only thing that might potentially get people voting for them while that knob is leader

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Mrs M all the Way

Now; this is the labour membership's chance to show how popular Corbyn is with the great uwashed.

Can they not get rid of him in next few weeks?

& at last the MSM have covered some of Labour's policies which I'm sure has no relevance to her changing her mind AGAIN.

 

[Gelsons Dad]

It's about clearing out the remainers so she can go full hard in the negotiations. It's the right move but it will help Labour in the long term as they will be shot of Corbyn a lot sooner than they thought.

I think many will vote Conservative as a thank you and sign of trust many i feel secretly hold rather explicitly for May and her team. With that i mean their local councilor may be a bit 'meh' a stocking filler even but to solidify Conservative power as i really feel man many people feel safe with May. I know i trust her rather a lot, more than any other mp anyway.

I doubt i am the only one who has developed this mentality either.

It feels like it's a response to divisions in her own party, as was the EU referendum. Let's hope it turns out as badly.

How anyone from a working class background can vote for the Tories is beyond me. Do you seriously not know what they stand for and whose interests they protect? It ain't yours sweethearts.

 

[Hamann Pineapple]

Surprised at how many allow Murdoch to form their opinions of Corbyn.

 

[foxy]

Labour leadership election on the 9th June then?

In that case she's making the same mistakes her predecessor did in letting the tail wag the dog.

 

[Ban-jani]

Opportunistic !

I will not be voting for the two faced bitch that's for sure.

As opposed to the "unelected" or "no mandate" line the left have trotted out over the majority of the last year?

She's giving you a chance to vote your preference in to take us unforward with Brexit and because your preference is too unpopular to win you're moaning? Democracy eh?

 

[NeilYoungIsBack]

Does that mean the Gorton by-election will be called off?

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Not surprised as she is just David Cameron with a pair of tits. Neither have a pair of balls.

 

[CTID1988]

Stranger things have happened (Brexit, Trump), lets hope this bites her on the arse

 

[sir baconface]

Hahahaha. Good shout from Theresa May.
