She's so bad. 10 minutes of saving face then strong arming the country into taking her deal.
That walk away was hilarious too.

God damn onions. Sneaking past our borders, taking our jobs...Haha it was the same for me but onions not prawns and my old ma used to try and sneak them in.
You should’ve just eaten the prawn pasta instead of trying to thwart the will of your dad.She's like my dad who kept trying to force feed me a prawn pasta when I was a kid, even though I'm allergic to prawns. He just wouldn't take no for an answer because he had spent hours preparing it. Eventually he said "well you can just starve, then".
They've said no to your deal twice, May. It's a shit deal. It's a prawn pasta.
I imagine your dad saying prawns with a scottish accent.She's like my dad who kept trying to force feed me a prawn pasta when I was a kid, even though I'm allergic to prawns.

Sounds like she's launching an election campaign as much as anything elseHere the the PM’s full statement:
“Nearly three years have passed since the public voted to leave the European Union.
“It was the biggest democratic exercise in our country’s history.
“I came to office on a promise to deliver on that verdict.
“In March 2017 I triggered the Article 50 process for the UK to exit the EU and Parliament supported it overwhelmingly.
“Two years on, MPs have been unable to agree on a way to implement the UK’s withdrawal.
“As a result, we will now not leave on time with a deal on the 29th of March.
“This delay is a matter of great personal regret for me.
“And of this I am absolutely sure: You, the public, have had enough.
“You’re tired of the infighting, you’re tired of the political games and the arcane procedural rows, tired of MPs talking about nothing else but Brexit when you have real concerns about our children’s schools, our National Health Service, knife crime.
“You want this stage of the Brexit process to be over and done with. I agree. I am on your side.
“It is now time for MPs to decide.
“So, today, I have written to Donald Tusk the President of the European Council to request a short extension of Article 50 up to the 30th of June to give MPs the time to make a final choice.
“Do they want to leave the EU with a deal which delivers on the result of the referendum, that takes control of our money borders and laws while protecting jobs and our national security?
“Do they want to leave without a deal, or do they not want to leave at all causing potentially irreparable damage to public trust not just in this generation of politicians but to our entire democratic process?
“It is high time we made a decision.
“So far, Parliament has done everything possible to avoid making a choice.
“Motion after motion and amendment after amendment has been tabled without Parliament ever deciding what it wants.
“All MPs have been willing to say is what they do not want.
“I passionately hope MPs will find a way to back the deal I’ve negotiated with the EU, a deal that delivers on the result of the referendum and is the very best deal negotiable.
“And I will continue to work night and day to secure the support of my colleagues, the DUP and others for this deal.
“But I am not prepared to delay Brexit any further than the 30th of June.
“Some argue that I’m making the wrong choice and I should ask for a longer extension to the end of the year or beyond to give more time for politicians to argue over the way forward.
“That would mean asking you to vote in European elections nearly three years after our country decided to leave.
“What kind of message would that send? And just how bitter and divisive would that election campaign be at a time when the country desperately needs bringing back together.
“Some have suggested holding a second referendum.
“I don’t believe that’s what you want and it is not what I want.
“We asked you the question already and you’ve given us your answer.
“Now you want us to get on with it.
“And that is what I am determined to do.”
A really deep, rugby player voice at that.I imagine your dad saying prawns with a scottish accent.
Mamma mia, here I go againFollowed by an instrumental of The Winner Takes It All softly playing in the background during her speech.
He’s meant to be providing some kind of opposition though....He didn't call the referendum. He didn't lead the country into a series of negotiations that were "let's spend 2 years arguing over what the Tories want, then go to the EU to get it at the last minute", he's not the one holding parliament to random for a dead deal. But yeah, let's insult and blame him.
to be fair I did vote for it, without knowing exactly what was in it. After finding out more I realised that I had voted for the wrong thing.You should’ve just eaten the prawn pasta instead of trying to thwart the will of your dad.

He's currently being criticised for not just giving into her?He’s meant to be providing some kind of opposition though....
I expected a song, it was a poor production.She's so bad. 10 minutes of saving face then strong arming the country into taking her deal.

This is a good summation as to how opinion has fluctuated over the last couple of years.How popular is she? Any polls?
This is the end My only friend, the endI expected a song, it was a poor production.
Nah, people think the two main candidates are shite. At this point the media should be looking to whoever else is available.This is a good summation as to how opinion has fluctuated over the last couple of years.
Essentially people just want out.

She just doesn't get it all. Every speech starts and ends with her assuming the mindset of the British Public. Assuming she's not a total moron then her biggest mistake was to pick a side. How can she expect to unite a Kingdom when she refuses to acknowledge any other voice? She's no Churchill, Thatcher or whoever she idolises and expects to replicate. Her legacy will be of failure.Tweet

Not since I got an electric shock from a lawnmower flex.Haven't seen anyone cling on to power this desperately since Wenger.
What a relief that the media’s influence has waned sufficiently that it doesn’t matter who else they find.Nah, people think the two main candidates are shite. At this point the media should be looking to whoever else is available.
Her only political quality is stubbornness. She has no nouse, vision, ability, aptitude, people skills, intelligence, leadership, or statesmanship. Her entire political career is based on her doggedly sticking at something.She just doesn't get it all. Every speech starts and ends with her assuming the mindset of the British Public.

Her drop and Corbyn's increase nicely coinciding with the General Election that May called. Remember when Parliament shut down because of it? Remember when all Brexit negotiations were put on hold so the parties could go on the campaign trail? She's an utter disaster.This is a good summation as to how opinion has fluctuated over the last couple of years.

I'm tired Bercow, it's not acceptable any more. It's time to go, it's time to fecking go nowHaven't seen anyone cling on to power this desperately since Wenger.
I realise now I phrased that badly didn't mean out of europe, just the political system.Nah, people think the two main candidates are shite. At this point the media should be looking to whoever else is available.
Lady shouts my way or the highway as everyone speeds off
Worth remembering for people that when she was Home Secretary her and her teams motto was that of Millwall football club - ''No one likes us, we don't care''She just doesn't get it all.

Somebody posted in here something about her being on the autism spectrum; I tend to agree with that. She hasn't a clue or any sense of other people's perspectives; no self awareness either. Her attempt at trying to speak for the public just appeared forced and false.Her only political quality is stubbornness. She has no nouse, vision, ability, aptitude, people skills, intelligence, leadership, or statesmanship. Her entire political career is based on her doggedly sticking at something.
Nah thats just deeply offence to people with autism.Somebody posted in here something about her being on the autism spectrum; I tend to agree with that.

She kows she's going to lose, so she's made a (pointless) play for public support by throwing everyone else under the Brexit bus.
It isn't meant as an offence. She has the traits - the same ones I see up close in a family member with Aspergers. Also Tory and Autism are not mutually exclusive categories.Nah thats just deeply offence to people with autism.
May problem is she is a tory.
The most worrying thing(Well part of from the no deal stuff)is May clearly being ok with playing into the traitor narrative. Number 10 has already said Bercow went against the ''will of the people''.She kows she's going to lose, so she's made a (pointless) play for public support by throwing everyone else under the Brexit bus.
