Reports that Sinn Fein may be taking up there 7 seats in the HOC this time.  Bringing the Tory / DUP alliance majority to just 4.

It does make me wonder how many Tory voters regret their vote now things have developed further.

Lets just bring in the unionists and the catholics.  They're famously affable, good willed and love a bit o' the craic together dont they.  They wont mind being played with as a little pawn in a game to keep May in power.

Disgraceful behaviour, though why should I expect anything less.  Im just glad the Israeli's and Palestinians don't have any seats in Parliament.

You could say the same about Brexit

May is a complete joke.  Over the last year she has changed her mind on:

1   Remain, just weeks after the referendum
2   exponential Probate Court fee increases, pulling them at the last minute
3   new NI Contributions for the self employed, just days after the budget
4   No Social Care contribution cap, just days after the manifesto
5   calling an election before the expiry of the fixed term, just days after her 6th denial
6   austerity itself, just days after the election
7   a hard Brexit just days after the election

and now on the need for neutrality on the Good Friday Agreement, it seems.

If she's not embarrassed or decent enough to resign, she is surely now the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE she shamelessly purports to represent.

Fuck me, she's a politician. What do you expect. The only one I've had any time for was Tony Benn - never wavered in what he believed in no matter how madcap some of them were.

Being in opposition means you can spout all sorts of nonsense.

Maybe that's the biggest thing that is wrong with politics in this country. No wonder so many people are apathetic, it's no wonder when the general belief is that most politicians are self serving scumbags with no real ideals of their own.

Tony spent some time as a Government minister under both Wilson and Callaghan.

I recall when he was Postmaster General, under Wilson, he wanted to replace the Queen's head on stamps, so that designers had a bit more space to play with. Her Maj told him to fuck off.

He did introduce postcodes, however.

...and with it (due to poor alignment), a decline in the importance of counties.

Much prefer the French and American systems which align postcodes with départements and states respectively.  Our system is muddled by comparison.
