Making a submarine out of cheese is of course stupid and does not represent brexit. Leaving Europe to majority of voters,ie those who voted, makes more sense than being part of the corrupt EU.
May has always wanted,as a remainer, to keep us tied to EU despite referendum result saying opposite. She should be replaced by a brexit supporter.

Why do people continue with the age old bu****it about a corrupt EU,  Are they any more corrupt than USA or Russia etc.
 Do they think the UK is pure and innocent and a model to be copied. Face the fact that perhaps a large number of people may have changed their minds about Brexit and wish a new vote.

We only had opinions and lies -  There were few facts and no actual plan when we voted first time.  Is it any different now?
Yes, I have the right to a vote but please, don't pass the buck over this way as I have no idea what the "truth" is.. .....

Excellent plan KKOB............clear, correct and concise.  Perhaps it should be copied to our politicians as a blueprint to guide them through future deliberations.  "That's the way to do it!"   ;D  8)  ;)

Who or what are the alternatives? Well let us all be clear she has set a very high standard which will be very difficult to exceed or even match. Let's face it :-
1. The guy who held up the P45 at the Conservative conference, you know the one where she found it difficult to complete her words and the stage props kept falling down was very prescient.
2. Her record at the Home office which left us with the creation of a hostile environment in which Windrush citizens were treated, well you know how they were treated.
3. She called a general Election and lost her majority - such skillful judgement and such campaigning really shows there is no one like her.
4. She started the clock on Article 50 without any idea of where she wanted the country to be following negotiations, she didn't even have agreement with her own party about what the negotiations should deliver.
5. She turned a deaf ear to Scotland and Wales in respect of what they wanted from negotiations while buying DUP support which they have now withdrawn.
6. Tried the tactic of saying "No deal is better than a bad deal" it didn't frighten the EU. In fact probably made them less sympathetic.
7. Delivered a plan no one seems to like and she won't allow a vote on...yet.

All this against a backdrop of increases to children in poverty, homelessness, use of food banks and the prospect of Universal Credit being rolled out nationally. Oh and Sterling is doing great isn't it!

Is there really no alternative to Mrs May? Seriously, no alternative?

I for one just have a hunch that someone might do a better job.

Next Tory leader, latest odds:
The one who lied on a bus 6-1
The one who lied about impact assessments 8-1
The one who lied to Parliament and resigned 10-1
The one who lied and didn’t resign 15-1
The one who destroyed the NHS 20-1
The one who didn’t know we were an island 8-1
