BY JON ALEXANDER So there we have it. UK Prime Minister Theresa May has announced she is to resign on the 7th of June this year. Many will now point to her tenacity, determination, dedication and principles and try to forge some sort of passable legacy for her, trying to overwrite the fact she achieved next to nothing of note since she came to power … Continue reading Three Wasted Years
CSM EDITORIAL Nigel Farage has said that a vote for his Brexit Party would be a vote for a WTO Brexit – his name for a no deal Brexit. He also said that if his party won big in the EU elections, they should have a place at future talks with the EU. Farage is something of a hate figure with Conservatives being seen as … Continue reading Farage Merits Negotiating Place
BY ALEXIA JAMES Is Theresa May mad? Is she on a suicide mission of some kind? Seeking to cause as much damage as possible wherever she can? Is she playing a game of Opposite Machiavelli, where at all times one does the opposite of what cunning Niccolo urged for the prince? Does she have something against Democracy? At what point did voters become an inconvenience … Continue reading Political Suicide
CSM EDITORIAL The humiliation that Theresa May has brought to her country will not be fast forgotten. Last night’s delay of Brexit through to Halloween is just another case of the EU27 having a laugh at the UK’s expense. It is not Brexit that has brought the UK to its knees – it is Theresa May. The sooner she leaves Downing Street the better. Asked … Continue reading May the Useless
BY JAMIE FOSTER If Theresa May is remembered for one thing it will be holding on past the point any other Prime Minister would have resigned.

She has twice asked for the … Continue reading Fingernails

It was not to play about on the edges, being halfway in or out; it was not to have another little … Continue reading Let them Eat Cake

CSM EDITORIAL Yesterday evening’s statement by Theresa May that she would be seeking a further extension to Article 50 and would be reaching out to Corbyn’s Labour Party was the last straw for Brexiteers across the country – with talk of “the rape of British Democracy” last night. For Conservative Brexiteers her statement was even worse – May has put them in an impossible position … Continue reading Brexit Alliance Urgently Required
CSM EDITORIAL Mrs May is off to Brussels to ask for a short delay to the Article 50 process. It is impossible to imagine what her short delay will achieve. The only point of it is to threaten MPs again that if they don’t vote for her deal they risk a no deal exit. This is a threat that has already been used extensively and … Continue reading Man Up May – Let’s Just Leave
