Thread Name: BS: Post Brexit life in the UK
Subject: RE: BS: Post Brexit life in the UK
The Tories are still in only because there hasn't been a regime change. There is no credible alternative to the woman who is already devoid of credibility, and a regime change that puts in a similarly weak and divisive figure will immediately produce an irresistible call for a general election. I don't think anyone in our political club wants that just now, including Jeremy Corbyn, what with the poisoned chalice that comes with the PM's job. There was an interesting cri de couer on Question Time last night when there was a plea for some leadership from Corbyn, for him to speak up for what people really want, instead of his continuing with his apparently pusillanimous wait-and-see attitude. I hope it's a tactic and not something born of indecision. It comes across as paralysis. This country desperately needs an alternative to this stupid brexit steamroller. He's the only person who can provide it with any degree of effectiveness.
