Labour aren't in power, and I'm not really viewing the 'scandals' as a big deal in themselves to be honest. Certainly not on what we've heard so far. The difference for me is that May is literally cutting her party up, whereas Labour are actually being admirably resilient/relatively under the radar in the face of all of this. Depends on the mood of the progressives iyam. I note they've actually played this down so far, probably because they'd have to take Labour as well as the Tories, if they went for it. In the absence of them, there will be minimal moral condemnation and the Tories are in fact just pulling themselves apart for nothing. We'll see though.

Lascelles will get his call up I'm sure, but it's probably too soon yet. Maybe a season of consistency in the top flight will do it.

Not yet but this could do it. It depends what comes out.

None of those countries' governments, bad as they are, have inflicted a national crisis of the scale of Brexit. Even Greece didn't, and they had a far better reason to than we did.

Looks like she might lose Green as well... I think she's fucked, CT. I think the Tories are fucked. Could be wrong, but I can't recall having seen such a shambolic government anywhere outside of South America.

Gimme a shout when you're back for this. It's going to be a bit unfair on people we play against since I'm basically a smurf on this account, but eh...

Yeah but you'd expect a sense of self-preservation... If she goes, I don't see how a government can be re-formed. I think they'll have to go back for another GE. And on this showing, they'll get their arses handed to them.

I suppose that makes sense, but I just don't see it ending well for her.

Why has Theresa May done this, it's going to be a total clusterfuck. Unless she thinks it'll kill off Johnson. I read an article in the Guardian stating that these 'non-story' small issues were detracting from the serious ones, and I think that's about right. People will just think the whole thing has been trumped up to ridiculous levels, whereas there very probably are serious issues to look at here.

Decent post tbf.

Pardew might take over Rangers, apparently...

You mean you're not here for Looney's scintillating posting?

... For such a small group of active posters, we have a good mix of thoughtful commentary and just batshit craziness.

If Fallon has resigned for touching someone's knee 15 years ago, someone who has come out and said she wasn't a victim, and that it is not something that bothers her, then this is fucking stupid. If he's done other things, as seems likely, then fair enough. Either way, I'm tempted to say the Tories will use this as a distraction from the Brexit catastrophe.

Savage.

Agree that Chinese is unlikely to help me over the course of my life. Still would do it anyway if I had to do everything again. Wouldn't be where I am without it.

Yeah makes sense. I'm kinda torn on this one because I'm basically ready to buy a house now, but feel that I should be happy in my life before I do, or risk being tied down to making sure I can afford to keep it. But then, the longer I wait, the longer I'm not financially 'free'.

Don't know why you think that would be too late to make a change? EDIT - although I get that you regret thinking that

More like 11/12ths

I'm on the brink of turning 32. But I'm making some rather significant changes in my life at the moment so I still feel like I have options open (until choices get made, I suppose).

I could see myself coming to regret this, as I have this mentality.

I'm not sure I have any significant regrets yet tbh, but I suspect they're around the corner.

I would love to see that fucknut start from the bottom and see what he makes of himself. My money is on working in McDonalds.

I don't think there are any new ways that it is possible to say how fucking stupid this is.
