Well said Jim - absolutely spot on re the 'real persona' of Theresa May. The devious snake of a Home Secretary who moved up the ranks to grab the opportunity when it arose!! I'm not a Corbyn fan or a NLP supporter but, despite certain of Corbyn's faults, he is indeed a decent, scrupulous man compared with Cruella de Ville!

Completely agree with that.

Actually he is a bit like Bernie Sanders in his outlook and being a thoroughly decent chap!!  My fear though is like Bernie he will never win an election, whether by fair or foul methods!!!  These guys just cannot invigorate enough people outside their core base to sweep them to power!!  When is the likely next election in the UK anyway?  I can't help thinking that Cameron should have called one immediately after the Brexit vote as this was a defeat for the official government stance.

Do you think sanders could have won it for the democrats SCO ? Not even with a more radical approach than clinton ? Might have countered trumps arguments with something a bit more sane.

Well there is some speculation that if the PM loses her Supreme Court appeal next month, she will then move towards calling an early General Election because of the Tory strength in the opinion polls, the view being that she could be in a stronger parliamentary position by the time of a poss Brexit debate!

Fixed term now isn't it? Cant see it happening til 2020.
