    Clinging on in the sense that she's barely passed any legislation or made any governmental decision since the election.

      May sees herself as a resilient trooper, not a quitter, in it for the long haul, etc. It is pure vanity masquerading as a sense of duty and self sacrifice.

        Apologies to Satchmo, I said I'd never post this goon again, but can't resist it.

        Isn't it funny how those complaining loudest about a 'hostile environment' aimed at those who entered the UK illegally are happy to have created a hostile environment for the old, for Leave voters, for the working-class & basically anyone who disagrees with their liberal agenda?

          Populism expert, Matthew Goodwin. He's like Reece Dinsdale in ID. He's become "one of them".

            Not a shining moment for EU transparency.

            ESA appeal board denies appeal by unspecified person of an unspecified decision by ESMA not to investigate an unspecified national authority for an unspecified reason.

                      So, according to the UK edition of the Sunday Times, the Brexiteers are gearing up for an autumn election - sigh, we'll be onto page 1,000 of this thread by 2025, and still analysing Single Market mechanisms, won't we?

                        That'll go well, another snap election. What's the slogan? "Who governs?"

                          The unionist commentator Alex Kane has tweeted that another Border poll will be published tomorrow, and suggests movement towards a united Ireland:

                            I wonder how many millions are going into the NHS because of this

                                  85% in NI want to remain in the Single Market, including 75% of Protestants and 57% of Leave voters.

                                      I did see John Harris and Matthew Goodwin playing pool in a pub on the Isle of Dogs, now you mention it. They had paint-splattered overalls on, and the landlady was taking a bit of shine to Goodwin.

                                        Following the NI poll, Karen Bradley insists the whole UK will be leaving the customs union, and Paisley likens Brexit to pregnancy.

                                          Poor effort by Len McCluskey on here v Peter Mandelson (ex-EU Trade Commissioner).

                                          Blah blah negotiation blah blah the Tories.

                                          I'm glad McCluskey beat that appalling Gerald Kipper, but members' jobs shouldn't be an add on to supporting Corbyn.

                                            SDLP, SF, Alliance and NI Greens call for the Six Counties to remain in the Single Market - sadly the UUP won't do likewise, despite having campaigned for Remain.
