I don't follow celebrity politics much but the electorate who she represented re-elected her with 75% of the vote so some of them must at least think she's done a good job.

I doubt we would vote to renew Hughes by that margin if we voted on it.

And the vote for brexit was out!
Maybe they all thought Cameron did a good job.<laugh>

I think if we had a second vote on EU it would be reversed rather than significantly increased as in Abbotts case. But of course leave voters don't believe in second votes when it comes to the EU so we won't know if the public think they have done a good job as you would find out in a democratic process.

The High Court will rule as early as Christmas whether Brexit should be declared “void”, in a legal case given a turbo-boost by the criminal investigation into Leave funder Arron Banks.

Judges are poised to fast track the potentially explosive challenge, after Theresa May’s refusal to act on the growing evidence of illegality in the 2016 referendum campaign, The Independent can reveal.


Lawyers describe that failure as “absolutely extraordinary” – given the National Crime Agency’s (NCA) probe into suspicions of “multiple” criminal offencescommitted by Mr Banks and the Leave.EU campaign.
Ah, but it was ok for the government to spend millions on remain propaganda? The 'system' is using every trick in the book to reverse this. Each time with increasing desperation. Do they really think 17 plus million only voted Leave because they read a Vote Leave poster?

This year I am only sending about two thirds the number of Christmas cards I normally send. I am not sending cards to those I normally send to who voted Leave as I do not wish to be associated with racists, bigots and fools.
Meet me at SMS and tell that to my face

May challenging Corbyn to a live debate, on Brexit, is all beginning to make sense now.
She wants it on the BBC, a channel that is no more than a propaganda voice for the Conservatives, with a panel made up from members of the public, who will, no doubt, be “very carefully screened” to ensure that they are May sympathisers.
Hey, she will probably have access to their questions too, so that she can rehearse her answers.
And then who will be the host. Andrew Neill, Andrew Marr, Dimbleby etc? All confirmed Tory supporters.
I prefer Corbyn’s choice. ITV, with just him and May, head to head.

Do you think they believe in second votes for other things then?
 
What's the full quote? Don't assume I know it. I find it very hard to imagine a comment about religion that's racist.

Not all M's are terrorists but all terrorists are M's. It is a pretty common "trot out" for those who might make idiots of themselves chanting "free Tommy" (not the Who one) or having a shouting match with the UAF.

I'm not putting the whole quote up because it will flag up on google and be taken out of the context I have written it in but you can guess the M I'm sure.

My point is that both your one and this one are the same statement with differing subjects and neither is true.
