Absolutely. Yet an easy target for haters who have achieved far less despite having better opportunities.
She should be celebrated by the Tories as she dragged herself up ladder, despite all the hurdles.

Isn't that what Toryism is about, dragging yourself up the classes despite coming from a working class background?

Class isn't a real thing. Not in my world.

I've seen her 'highlights' (admittedly distorted, like all such clips) in the HOP, and she comes over very emotional.

Fine, place in the HOP for all types of MP.

But out of her depth any higher, like at international congresses with folk of a different culture, who are less sentimental, more intellectual . more rational, more hardboiled. more calculating.

Still kewdos thus far.
 
Any views as to what the fact that Johnson’s deal means there will be customs barrier in the Irish Sea will do to the vote?

other than that the deal is pretty much identical to May’s, but it had been a ‘red line’ before

I’m asking it as a genuine question, as I don’t know the answer. You would think it would be a big deal for people in Northern Ireland, but will people on the mainland really care?

I don’t know I must say

Also I assume that to get a FTA done before the end of 2020 will require major concessions to the EU. So maybe no deal, and despite gloomy financial predictions many seem ok with that, or more likely a deal which will still see the EU fishing in UK waters fir example. Those things don’t seem to be making much difference to voting either do they? Are people assuming that assumption is wrong, or are they ok either way? Interesting to see.
Interestingly if we want to catch cod it's has to be caught in Norwegian waters !
Fishing is also a minuate percentage of our economy .
The loss of big financial institutions dwarfs it's importance !
