From afar, it all looks so unstable. Four PM’s in what, two years?
Don’t want to go down a rabbit hole, but Brexit is surely a significant factor. It has made the UK a lot worse, less prosperous, more unstable and harder to govern.

The thing is they won’t be the opposition as things are going. The SNP will be!
That could be a bucket full of laughs.

SNP is just polling 4 percent though. If there is another opposition party, that would be Lib Dems.

Yes but 4% is next to 100% in Scotland where they stand for election.
So practically all Scotlands seats go to SNP and I’m sure there’s more than 5 of them.

The SNP does not have “practically all” seats.
It has about three quarters, which is the majority but is by no means “practically all”.

Opinion polls and next GE, I know it’s difficult!
I posted a factual response to another one of your dubious posts and your response yet again is to funny it.
Serious question, U Ok Hun?
You still finding it difficult?
Finding what difficult?
If you could string together an intelligent response it will assist us all.

Whenever Labour get in, I hope they have a fair crack of the whip. Two full terms/cycles. One, to start to wade through the pile of crap they will inherit, and to start to try to get some normalcy back to government after the clown show. I hope the public are patient while that runs it’s course.
And then a second term to implement policies, after taking a while to put out fires.
Two terms would not be long enough sadly.
It should be the opportunity to get PR into action though.

Was reading this thread and watching a little BBC recap of the current UK PM situation having a quiet laugh to myself.
Then I remembered Trump might still be the favorite to become president in 2024 rivaled in his party by someone who puts illegal immigrants on a plane to Martha’s Vineyard because he thinks it’s funny and in the democrat party by the sitting president who we just hope can still vaguely read a teleprompter 2 years from now.
And we all wonder why Putin thought he’d have no problem invading Ukraine…
Cheers mate 
As I’ve said, I’m no Tory supporter, they’re just closer to my view of the world than Labour.
There’s a left wing vote?
Not trying to be facetious, but traditionally in politics you have left wing, left, centre left, centre, centre right, right, right wing and a few ideologies in between and around (agrarianism for instance). Some countries don’t have all of that diversity, but in parliamentarian systems there tends to be quite a few. In first past the post systems, far less, since that system demands bigger tents to gain power. So inside those tents you will always have sub tents or wings.

Thanks, I’m perfectly well aware of that having studied politics at university. I know the origin of the terms during the French revolution.
The point I was making was that the entire Conservative party is so right wing nowadays that talking about her splitting the right wing vote in the party is rather laughable.

Honestly, even as a outsider, the way that the PM is being going through the carousel is making a mockery of the system but if they vote back Boris, it would be a total collapse.
Be prepared for Bozo II: The Revenge
If he makes it to the final two, which seems likely as there are plenty of Tory MPs who care more about their seats than what’s best for the country, then he’ll wipe the floor with Sunak when the party members get to vote.
