Here’s how we get stuck with the Tories

Hector Drummond Posted on Thursday 19th July 2018 by Hector DrummondThursday 19th July 2018

It’s now clear how it’s probably going to go. Theresa’s May’s sinking fortunes convince the Tories to finally go for a leadership challenge. A better leader, like Boris Johnson or Jacob Rees-Mogg, probably Boris, is installed. The right will cheer … Continue reading →

Hector Drummond Posted on Monday 9th July 2018 by Hector DrummondMonday 9th July 2018

Remember I said that May would not be going unless she was dragged kicking and screaming out of No. 10? Remember that she said that if she won a confidence vote by even one vote she’d stay? David Davis may … Continue reading →

Hector Drummond Posted on Thursday 14th June 2018 by Hector DrummondWednesday 13th June 2018
