Conservative Leadership Poll & Chat 30/06/16

[Thracian]

Why..!! One doesnt learn common sense or social etiquette at university.

 

No, Leadsom's made that quite clear.   

[Thracian]

So you are aware Leadsom is exactly that?

 

There is far worse than Leadsom. 

[Thracian]

Yet he's still a Tory MP.

 

 

If people were judged fairly and completely I'd doubt there'd be any MPs. 

[Thracian]

You must be so gullible to believe this tripe in the Times.  A L. is fuming that such blatant "lies" have been printed, that don't represent what she said. Did you see the writer grovel on TV today, when asked the pertinent questions, about the article? I suspect not.

 

The Times was / is, very pro Europe, and appears to be operating a smear campaign, in order to push more votes through for T.M.

 

 

 

You may well be right but none of that hides the vulnerability, naivity and misjudgement of a person lacking the qualitiy and instinct to be Prime Minister.    

[Guest]

Come the next election his constituents can bear his actions in mind.

 

But not the party?

 

At least Labour give out suspensions for wrongdoings.

[Guest]

I think the Tories trying to evade a democratic vote on who is to be their leader (and the PM) is poor.

 

May should welcome the election and show her massive support not try to get everyone else to pull out.

[Guest]

20 mps to quit if Leadsom becomes leader. 

 

Politics is getting more pathetic by the day.

Nothing surprIsing in that. It's a divisive issue.

Any reason why??? I know Teresa shows more cleavage but this is silly

[Guest]

Why is it?

 

A new leader is needed.

 

A healthy competition for the position is good.

 

Why do people need to threaten resignations if their candidate doesn't get in? 

 

How is that democratic?

 

After an election those people should see if they are compatible or not with their party and then act as required?

 

I'm sure they won't be putting their seats up for re-election if Leadsom wins.

What did Prescot get for shagging his Secretary?

[Guest]

What did Prescot get for shagging his Secretary?

 

Chlamydia?

 

a second Jag?

 

I think you're comparing different eras.

 

Didn't a Labour MP recently get suspended for questionable "jewish" comments?

 

Isn't Leadsom being told to stand down because she inferred that having children gave her a "better" position on the future?

[Guest]

"Let's keep this campaign clean"

 

"You've weaponised motherhood!"

Youre the world's worst troll. If you're going to try to start an argument at least make it believable.

[Dr The Singh]

Please explain, th3re is nothing wrong with being a small stumpy human like being, it's not his fault he looks like a troll.

And how is webbo a troll when he's one of the nicest blokes on the forum? 

[Dr The Singh]

Webbo, is lucky he has a wonderful personality, he looks more like a goblin then a troll, but he was born this way, so I'm disgusted that people label him as such

Only "one" of the nicest?

I thought it was you who was gobbling?

, we had this discussion before, you are the bitch in this relationship!!

[Guest]

Another question.

 

Are there no "heavyweights" in the Conservative party anymore? Or is May a "heavyweight"?

 

I remember when Thatcher, as strong as she was, had at least 10 heavyweights in the party with her - who she mostly controlled very well.

 

Is there not even a Tarzan Heseltine any longer?

Give me 6 months, I will be a 'heavy weight' of extreme notion, if not weight!!!

There's something fundamentally wrong when 150k of the country get to elect the next prime minister.

There perhaps should be a General Election anytime a prime minister steps down.

[theessexfox]

I disagree, we have a parliamentary system not a presidential one, the country returned a Conservative majority not a David Cameron premiership.

It's fundamentally wrong that one person has the most say in who becomes Prime Minister.

 

[Webbo]

Another election now would just turn into another referendum on the EU with parties pledging to leave or stay. We have to be past the point of no return before we vote again.
