Remember, if you are in no-mans-land between Tory and Labor, you get hit by friendly fire from both sides ;-)

Congrats, you repeated what the person you replied to said.  But the fact remains that Brexit is ALMOST as dumb as electing Trump President of the US.

We are free to have opinions.  I am just a blood sport fan.  But why do you want GB to be a slave to Germany, eh?

The best antidote to Germany is a solid and involved Britain.  As is Germany's best protection against an aggressive Russia.  The most proper place for Britain is the last bastion of Europe and the closest connection to the US.

I think (which makes this a concern) that Britain is the centerpoint of world politics.  Russia dares not take Europe because Britain is at the end of it and the US will not, if it allowed every other nation to fall, abandon Britain.

I would pick up a gun and go...

Nice theory.  GB was cuck to Germany in 1939.  Churchill was the only alpha male in their whole country.  With him dead, GB has to surrender to Merkel even.  So GB won't moderate Germany, Germany will radicalize GB.

And yes, except for that loon Hitler declaring war on us, we should have abandoned GB.  I love them too, but only because of Monty Python.

The Brits play dirty politics just like the Americans.  We probably learned it from them ;-(

The German Empire can't be stopped by anyone.

I honestly think at this point May is just hanging on long enough to have a longer premiership than Gordon Brown.  She's accomplished fuck-all otherwise.

To do Gordon Brown one better, she needs to give away all the rest of the gold in the BoE .. including the Queens ;-(

So, PM Theresa May ... announced that she is leaving June 7.  The long knives are out, as in 2016, for the new Tory leadership.

Mother seems to think Boris Johnson is in with a chance. I'm neither one way or another about him.

Rees-Mogg, Raab several others are viable.  But do you want to put lipstick on that pig (Tory party)?

Gove, in 2016 was an essential double-crosser to prevent Johnson from having a successful bid.

I kind of feel bad for hoping it'll be him. But I hope it'll be him.
