Should Theresa May resign and leave the stage?
Many politicians of different persuasions in the UK are now saying that whatever happens with Brexit, Theresa May should go. Well actually I disagree. Let the poor woman see this to the end and if she gets her deal eventually approved by Parliament let her carry on and get it sorted out and onto the next stage, negotiating a trade relationship with the EU. No one else in the Tory government has worked harder than her to get a deal and she should be allowed to pursue it at the helm to the final lap. And who on earth is there anyway who will do a better job? Who is waiting in the wings to be a better, more inspiring leader? No one in my view. No one. Someone on the TV last night, when asked this very question, said it should be someone who voted to leave the EU in the first place and nominated Dominic Raab. I know little about him. What I do know doesn't inspire me. He resigned as Brexit Secretary because he didn't like the way it was going. Well, please, he should have stayed and fought it like a man instead of giving up. So I don't want a loser to replace Theresa May. Ever. As for the rest on the potential list of candidates, Michael Gove, Boris Johnson, Amder Rudd, Sajid Javid, etc etc no no absolutely no!! So Theresa May, for all your faults, your lack of charisma, your obsession with certain words like "we must ensure", your inability to change the same old message, your obstinacy (not always a bad thing), your difficulty actually talking like a human being to your cabinet colleagues, and your failure to draw in views from all political parties when you began this Brexit horse race, I believe you should stay at 10 Downing Street and keep all your rivals at bay. If it all works out in the end, she should enjoy some of the glory, if there is any glory to be had.
