May: I will resign on 7 June

“It is now clear to me that it is in the best interest of the UK for a new PM to lead that effort,” she says.

“I am today announcing that I will resign as Conservative leader on Friday 7 June.

“I have agreed with the party chairman that the process for electing a new leader will begin in the following week.”

But she gets to be the PM at the D-Day Ceremonies, then resigns one day later?

Good riddance

I would have thought her resignation would be before June 3 so she could avoid an asp chewing from President Trump

Maybe she’ll get one last chance to display that British ‘stiff upper lip’

” You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go.”

Appropriate words from the past.

Sad thing is that of the major nations the British had the first and best in my opinion prime minister in Margaret Thatcher. (Gilda Meir in Israel was the first but I did not consider it a major nation’s at the time).

Since then no other woman has had a major impact for good at that level, Markle is a power but I do not consider her a force for good in the world. She has allowed mass migration into Europe at the expense of the citizen’s safety, security and liberty.

We almost had Clinton that would have made Markle look like an amateur.

May 1st, Macron, Merkel are next and Castro's Illegitimate Son in Canada as well later on.

The Trumpian Revolution has pulled the mask off all these clowns, people are awake, the Swamp/Deep State is worldwide and the Three Card Monte' game they have been playin' on us is over.

So does Nigel Rise up and become P.M.?

7 June is kicking the can down the road just one more time. I’m a little curious to see how her party will weather the shellacking it’s about to receive. Whoever does step forward to lead it is going to be in a very unenviable position.
