Arnold looks like DeMint compared to Cameron. The Tories had a huge lead at the beginning of the year and lost it when they went to the squishy center. A Thatcher platform of take no prisoners would’ve given the Tories a landslide.

LOL She's probably thrilled to get rid of Brown and his cronies, I know I am. amazing isn't it how much of Europe is going right wing yet we still have dopes thinking the let wing system works when clearly it has not. Europe tried the left wing approach , it never worked so they said lets go right but no the left who are known for being thick said lets go how Europe was. if only these left wing idiots had a brain , the country would be so much better off.

Don’t blame her. All the time she’s had to meet with Laborites who have blamed her and the RF for everything going wrong, insulted her by missing meetings (Blair), and doing one thing after another to undermine the House of Lords (who don’t have any real power and are ceremonial) and blaming them for the problems of the nation. And damaging the nation the whole time.

Sounds like Cameron gave away the store to get the job. According to the BBC Lib Dems got pretty much everything they wanted...and looks like they might get 4 cabinet positions too.

10 years ago that would be true.

Now, with the leftward shift of US Democrats, I don’t think so.

The grey suits in Labour have such animosity towards the Scots and some LibDems using Lib as a cover for ex-BNP l0sers, that Cameron was a lock all along.

If the new PM (may God bless him and his family) can get the LibDems some electoral reform without screwing the pooch (NASA term) they could have a 24-month run minimum without calling elections.

So glad to see Brown fall on his sword. What a gobshite.

That tells me a lot right there. At a time when Britain has to cut taxes AND spending to right the ship, they're going to have to compromise on the later with their socialist coalition and continue to spend themselves towards bankrupcy.

My Mutual Funds has an International Fund that has a huge investment in the UK, I'm pulling out of it and moving it somewhere else.

I dont’ think there are any conservatives in England. Just a bunch of pansy-wansy commie-socie fops.

I think he did the best he could under the circumstances. The country needs to make some hard choices and that isn’t going to happen if he’s looking at a no confidence vote every other week.

Not even close. The UK electorate (especially inclusive of Wales and Scotland) is a left-leaning one. Thatcherism is dead.

Yeah, missus osama would have had like a bright orange paisley boob belt with that purple dress. Actually, she would never have worn anything that understated and the color would have made osama’s lips look purple.
