I doubt it would be Boris, I am not saying he would not try, I think May's days are numbered.

I don't disagree about May being ousted.  I am sure there will be a lot of candidates vying for the PM spot.  It would be funny if they did choose Boris though.

Couldn't find it being reported yet, but word is the Northern Ireland DUP party is going to side with the Tories to form a new coalition government.

The problem with DUP is.... well DUP. It's a problematic party for a country that doesn't want much to do with DUP amid a punch for reintergration (DUP is really out there in their social/political goals way further extreme than the Cons). Brexit makes things extremely complicated for NI. What can the Tories really offer DUP in exchange for such loyalty... considering NI is usually disrespected anyway? I agree with Boiler, May's days are numbered. Boris will try, and I think Boris will fail. There are better persons available.

Now there will be all the talk about ousting May from the PM spot.  Rumor has it that they are eying Boris.  I guess they want their own Trump on the other side of the pond.  Is Boris a twitter fanatic?

Boris is no Trump i.e. he is not a complete ####. I do hope he does become prime minister though. It would be rather fitting that he be the one to drink from the poison chalace that is briexit.

The good news is that both the main parties will honour BREXIT.

And the Tories are trying to form a government with terrorist sympathizers 

Never mind, that she might end wrecking the good Friday agreement, just so long as she hangs onto power. 

 

Theresa May did say there would be a coalition of chaos.

Corbyn was the IRA guy?

Dude, those smear tactics didn't work for Theresa May, so I am not sure what you think they are going to achieve.

Theresa May has to be one of the worst British PM in my life time. Even worse David Cameron, a man who gambled everything one referendom and lost. I am kinda of glad the Labour party didn't win a majority. The Tories and their bigoted DUP chums are going to wish they were in opposition as well, once they find out that the Germans aren'tgoing to bend over backwards to help the British out, for fear of encouraging other EU  members to leave.

A smokescreen so that people can forget the terrorists who support DUP? Start digging into the history of that organization and their backers..... and it's a real eye-opener.

Are we using "history" to define people in 2017 again? Is there terrorism occurring in my lifetime due to the DUP?

Yes, but not the sort you are fixated about. There's a reason DUP is a toxic cesspool of scandal, dirty money, and blood.

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

I believe there are Tories that will be in complete disgust with May seeking any sort of deal. It will take a while before she realizes how feckless she is right now, but I think after some rough patches, another vote will be happening.. and they will rue the day they ever cast a lot with her. It's a shame so many good people have to continue to suffer the consequences.

Apparently they already have, even though they didn't.

Neil was not a Tory. Not even his enemies would have suggested that.
