Pretty much. Not satisfactory at all.
To get through the next 5 years we needed a government with a strong majority.
The Tories have managed to royally screw that up, it's a collapse of monumental proportions and the blame goes to whoever wrote that manifesto and instead of focusing on Brexit decided to try and use the lead they had in the polls to shoehorn in a load of other stuff that was deeply unpopular with their core base.
The reason she was doing well in the polls was purely because of Brexit. She had been dropped in it and was making a decent fist of it and people appreciated that.
She called the election because of Brexit
But then failed to mention anything about Brexit in the manifesto.
They let Labour set the agenda and this is the result.
Brexit is still the no.1 issue facing this country. They need to get that back front and centre.
I worry, I really do.
