tzijlstra   11 #56 Posted June 28, 2018 Cameron never in his wildest dreams expected the result that his election winning referendum promise brought forth, thus he never needed a plan for either scenario. The Tories then vote in another remainer as his successor, obviously devoid of any assemblance of a plan, this is just about as stupid as another pacifist succeeding Neville Chamberlain.  Anybody going into a situation with two possible outcomes not preparing for either outcome is a buffoon. Now, that is pretty much a given when it comes to Cameron, but what on earth is the Labour party doing in all this? They didn't decisively stand at either side of the debate, they couldn't convince their hinterland nor can they now decide what to do.  Opposition - they only need to back one side and they can't manage that. Admittedly that shows how complex this debate is, but equally, it shows a lack of leadership on either side of the House of Commons. And that is exactly where the problem is.  Cameron played with fire, Labour didn't extinguish it and now May is slapping small buckets, nay, thimbles of water at the issue. The country is set for disaster in this political system and leadership void. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
melthebell   863 #57 Posted June 28, 2018 It’s hardly surprising that something never previously attempted can run into difficulties. The vitriol being thrown at us by certain EU leaders doesn’t make for a decent deal. May now needs to toughen up, she is showing a lack of strong leadership, and god help us if she’s got similar advisers to those that advised her to call the snap general election. Vitriol by the EU  Surprising  also known as negotiation, we CANT have our cake and eat it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
