I think May will survive because nobody else truly wants the job, they would be on a hiding to nothing. They wish to destabilise her from behind the...

You could say that about any election. We don't test people to see how knowledgeable they are before allowing them to vote. The fact is they gave the...

I think she will survive too, unfortunately.

What might save her are: 1. There are a greater proportion of MPs on the Govt payroll now with even a few dozen trade envoys meaning almost half of...

To answer that question, I would have to have a deep understanding of what is in the treaty, before I could make an informed decision about wheather...

When things were better managed all the 48+ who signed a letter of "no confidence" would have been executed...which approach would have eliminated...

I would have thought that was a given, becasue nither a Brexitier or a Remainer could win.

So... conservative leadership election. What do people think will happen? I'll go for Teresa May surviving but not by much, but soldiering on...

thanks Yaks. I did mean 2019 - i'll edit my post to correct this.

2020 or 2019 ? I'm in both the Fling and the Devil next year so covering the whole route, but over 2 separate races. Already know the course...

Last night the Bowland Bats opted for a circuit over Pen-y-Ghent from H-i-R; Brackenbottom, S. Crags, summit then Horton Scar Lane. Two of us got...

Here's an old thread! Who here has got an entry for 2019 and/or has done the race in recent years and has any helpful or interesting advice or tips...

Through the campsite is the best way. I've been trying to attach a map, but the size limit for the forum is too small really. Also, yes, the large...

I wonder how those hundreds, possibly thousands, of delegates and press that are attending the summit in Poland got there. Shanks's Pony?

I wouldn't (and nor would most people who advocate needing to do something to stop catastrophic future climate change) suggest that is the only issue...

Will hopefully avoid the keeper's snares/traps/lamps/guns...

No more fish will mean no more Goosanders - result!

Back to the club tonight and a 30 minute hill rep session on the road. Felt the heavy weekend mileage in my legs, but worked as hard as possible. ...

Mercies She might have had months left of her dog-years, but to be who? She’d grown light as a nest and spent the whole day under her long ears...

Good luck with the Tax issue. It looks like those commitments made a decade ago might well be disappearing, especially once the UK leaves, one of the...

I didn't quote it but I referred to it and said I agreed.

What is excellent about it? The Treaty was a continuation of the centralising trend away form the nation state. Personally I think that is...

Maybe you should have read/quoted another piece of my post. I am not convienced - this is one thing we can agree on.

If I am being perfectly honest, I though it was an excellent piece of political work. The fact that nobody is screeming about Lisbon would seem to...

Suppose Remain had won, would you have been asking for another referendum after two and a half years if there were some things about EU membership we...

Patrick, you obviously know more about the Irish referendums than me. But what do you think about the French and Dutch referendums of 2005? In both...

This chestnut keeps coming up. Maybe a bit of facts will help. In Ireland during both the Nice and Lisbon referendums, the No campaigners...

Anybody else on this at the weekend? General mountain forecast for the weekend looks a bit bleak. Although just returned from a steady weekend in...

I'm with MR on May's errors. She has made several big errors, going against the advise of (sometimes) more experienced cabinet colleagues and going...
