Rumours coming out that the DUP are already asking for changes to abortion laws in exchange for propping May up

 

Is there a minsicule chance that the DUP are going to cause such an uproar that this all collapses and Corbyn swoops in with a minortiy coalition?

No. Numbers just don't stack up for Corbyn unfortunately. All DUP will do is back queens speech and budget then we are into summer when May will go. DUP will get extra money for Ireland etc but have no chance in changing things like abortion laws. Far too many liberal conservatives who would walk away from that as Ruth Davidson demonstrated yesterday.

Is there not a provision for the queen to approve a coalition under the majority needed in exceptional circumstances? For nutters that don't believe in evolution, homosexuality or abortion for example

That's what she has done. This won't be a formal coalition with the DUP in that they won't have a seat in the cabinet. It'll be an arrangement for them to back major legislation in return for this demands being met.

That sounded inevitable. It's the Tories trying to scapegoat IMO. 

 

May stabbing her mates to cling on. Don't think it will placate some, mostly those who fancy being leader.

May's on another planet if she thinks she's surviving this 

 

She doesnt. Tried to resign early yesterday apparently but the men in suits said she had to secure the ship first. That means getting the government in place, the queens speech through and the Brexit talks underway.

 

Leadership campaign will take place in the summer.

 

Big question now is what more can Labour now do to be in with a chance when the next election comes.

 

Its one thing performing well against low expectations but quite something else to get all those extra seats needed to obtain a majority. Especially when it's a given that the next Tory manifesto will be a vast improvement on the last.

 

One very angry Tory MP today commenting on all the bad stuff for pensioners, "The only thing missing was compulsory euthanasia for the over 70's". :lol:

If there's a party better than Labour at internecine warfare it's the Tories. Great to see the smug cunts tearing themselves apart
