She won't resign pip.

Tim Farron has announced he is to make a statement as well in the next half hour.

Listening to her speech now, she's such a hypocrite.

I agree in that it is good to see them participate but I think it only happened because of the promise of tuition fees being scrapped.
Confirmed in this household.

My daughters all voted for the first time this election (for labour) because of this.
My other half also, because of the policy to stop giving the free school dinners to primary school kids (she works in a school kitchen).

As one Tory put it, they "shot themselves in the head".

Btw May is responsible ultimately for the manifesto as well
She will hobble on with the help of the DUP but she is fatally wounded and one wonders how long she will now last as the PM.

Just to pick up on this... some people were slating Corbyn because of some supposed comments.

The same people are very silent regarding the conservatives teaming up with the DUP


Double standards?

The DUP have strong historical links to loyalist paramilitaries

Peter Robinson who was DUP leader and also first minister was an active member of Ulster Resistance


I don't understand how it's OK to berate Corbyn but yet this is perfectly acceptable?

Mmm. Lefties grasping a bit I think.

There's a yawning chasm between Sinn Feinn, the longstanding political mouthpiece of the IRA, and the DUP, which flirted for about 12 months with an organisation that isn't known to have killed anyone, and put at least as much energy into acquiring nice berets as weapons.

Still, let them whinge, Tories + DUP is a majority and there's nothing they can do about it, unless Jez's pals in Sinn Feinn decide to take up their seats after all.

Nowhere have I said this is acceptable. I wanted May to get a majority.
