    Surely it should be obvious that a change of PM should automatically trigger a general election within a certain time frame? Surely they will be tory voters who would have voted on the strength of Cameron but who would have never voted for Boris and his buffoonery!? Many people vote for the prime minister not just the party. I felt the same when Brown took over.

    Don't think the country really needs weakening any further in the short term, we're at breaking points. Not sure the relevance to my comment like

    I wouldn't send it to General Election again mate, not with Corbyn in the wings and millions of angry remainers with their pitch forks out.

    Cameron was right, we don't need to elect another just yet, we should cool off first.

    He might find himself back in the hot seat for all we know.

    I'm not sure he 'just give it to him', I think the next PM is internally elected, by the Conservative Party.

    Boris is favourite, May is the only other viable option at this time.

    If Corbyn resigned and was replaced with somebody who is not an invertebrate, I would be happy to go to another General Election.

    Labour don't scare me, but that maggot does.

    I know its probably not the best thing to do on this occasion at this moment in time, but its the principle of the thing really. Surely we wont have to wait until 2020 though? I'd sooner Cameron stay as PM because the other candidates other than Boris don't fill me with confidence either.

    Only one - and Thatcher was full of bluster. ("What! I am not signing away Britain's sovereignty. Never." Aye, but she always signed it in the end, didn't she?). Callaghan, Major And Blair I regarded as totally worthless, self-serving sh*ts. Gordon Brown I would go easy on, because I think Blair and his sour-faced missus sh*t on him, and he didn't have enough time in office to recover from it.

    Seriously, Cameron has faults like anyone else, but I believe he was more open and dedicated to democracy (Hillsborough, E.U. etc.) than any other PM for decades. I'm proud to have voted 'out' yesterday but still, I will miss him. I wish the man well.

    Andrea Leadsom would be my choice, she's not close enough though.

    The picture could change a lot if Corbyn did the right thing, or shot himself in the head.

    So the crux of it is. You did vote for one of them?

    Sorry mate. To put you on the spot. But...

    Hindsight is easy. You did vote for her (i would have also).

    Did you also vote in favour of this EU dedacle in the 70's?

    I did mate, because like every other UK citizen, I'd been told repeatedly that we were voting to enter "The Common Market". We're an island race and the only way those can survive is to build boats and go trade with other people - it's in our nature, so how else could we all vote?. But I started wanting to get out of it since around 1978 or '79. It was obviously a fake presentation by then.

    David Cameron has been the best prime minister, I can remember having around.

    The USD is now at 1.38 by the way, to the pound.

    Up from 1.34 this morning.

    Recovering well already.

    Down from 150 to 133 in no time. It will be a struggle.
