Funny, I thought incompetent national embarrassments that got a minority of the vote were in fashion for world leaders.
Jaxson Mitchell
Why are Britons so fucking retarded when it comes to politics? May didn't lose shit. Her party still holds a plurality, and still holds the majority with help from some token right wing party. Sounds like a complete victory for the right.
Well done, Eternal Anglo.
Jacob Jenkins
how many more times is she going to let her country get attacked? time for her to go.
Mason Ward
you know nothing stupid burger
Sebastian Carter
Watching the UK implode is fun.
Ryder Stewart
You have 2 months to fix yourcountry. I'm coming over to steal from your economy and I won't accept a 3.7:1 exchange ratio.
Jaxon Reed
you know shit
she completely screwed over
Leo Collins
I actually know exactly how the UK's government works since it's part of my job. That's why I know the way y'all think is absolutely fucking base-level retarded.
Liberals BTFO.
Daniel Taylor
I genuinely expected her to resign
She is either completely incompetent or an EU plant. Either way. Good luck Brits.
How can you say this is she has to form a minority government though?
Aiden Hernandez
you're a retard. she called the election so she could have a wider mandate. she didn't have to call it. she now has much less of a mandate than before
Brayden Jones
She had a larger majority. She gambled it thinking she could increase it meaning she would no longer be beholden to minority voices in her own party. She now has a smaller majority so she's far more beholden to minority voices in her own party and she needs to depend on another party altogether to even form a working government - meaning she'll need to quell her own opponents in the Conservative by compromise while also negotiating with the DUP when dealing with Brexit talks. And that when she didn't even need to call the election at all - it was unnecessary.
You should be fired, you fucking retard.
Adam Martin
After following the US election and the trump generals then switching to Brit/pol/ I really wish I was American because i've realized they are all so fucking stupid and thoughtless that it would be really easy to get by in the US because there would be no competition because they all have peabrains and are clueless
Dominic Jenkins
So why do you think it was smarter to lose her majority instead of not calling an election? I mean she even said she wouldn't so if she truly hadn't they would have way more power right now.
If she hadn't called a snap election when would've been the actual next one? Are you saying by then she would've lost against labour completely?
Bentley Rogers
Prime Minister Theresa May ordered a review on whether pedophiles should be allowed to adopt children in order to “not breach their human rights”.
This is the leader you have chosen or rather who was chose for you, yet you allowed it. Does not surprise that in the financial mecca of the world the blue bloods choose a leader that advocates for their "human (fucking reptiles none the less) rights".
Connor Jones
They had no other option Corbyn was even worse.
Brody Sanders
fuck negotiating with them bastards. Pack our shit & fucking leave. Restart the empire.
Colton Richardson
Still worried that the DUP will try to make it a soft brexit.
Nathan Ross
good thing the boi might be coming back
Isaiah Butler
Hahahahahahah with what? U can't trample over international law anymore with ur unlawful empire building schemes of looting the world...
Brandon Perez
Why would they be for a soft brexit? I am more worried about May.
Jaxson Hill
>women in politics not even once
John Richardson
Next one would've been 2020
Hudson Morgan
He's finished... Corbyn all the way baby.
Zachary Smith
Yea I don't get it either. British politics seems much more regional while in the US its about ideals. We have different regions that have majority in different parties but we are so mixed it's not about southern US vs western US power. Britain needs to get over its regional shit and unite under ideals.
Britain is so fucked up its going to have to bribe northern Ireland to get a functional government.
Evan Stewart
Cameron: lets have a referrendum on EU membership to show everyone that everyone thinks I'm right! No need to set the same percentage required to push whatever result comes in through like we had when we joined, this is all just a for-show stunt anyway.
Well... shit...
May: my public opinion rating is as high as it's going to get, lets have a general election to get an even bigger majority so I can steamroller everything I want with an actual public mandate, clearly they love me!
Well... shit...
Fucking idiots, they're actually managing to make Labour look good. Fuck this country, it's about to burn.
Landon Sanchez
You think Labour would've been rebuild by then and you would've had a worse result than now?
Kevin Foster
She had a good majority, now she doesn't hold a singular majoirty. Many seats were lost, some strong ones. Her position is weaker than it ever has been all in the name of "strong and stable".
Her career is over starting now, and the country is now even more divided than it was before, just in time for Brexit negotiations.
Sure, the Conservatives may still be in power... fucking JUST (by like what, two seats out of 650) but their ability to do anything has basically died. Now Northern Ireland is going to go to shit too because Sinn Fein aren't going to take kindly to British interference in Northern Irish politics... something which is straight up illegal. How the fuck can you form a coalition government without favouring your partner?
Caleb Nguyen
They prospective government will be so unstable that I don't think they'll even pass the vote to make themselves the government.
Daniel Jones
>tell your biggest trading partners to collectively go fuck themselves >they stop trading with you >london stops being an economic center as it's businesses prefer to move inside the EU >economy goes down the shitter >now basically have to bark whenever the US calls
bright idea there mate
Cameron Murphy
I thought we were only 45% of their trades?
Kevin Walker
still collectively their biggest trading partner and 45% is massive, as a nation you can't really afford to fuck that up
Ryder Powell
She had a workable, though not great majority she could of kept for the next three years. She gambled thinking she'd get more and got much, much less.It takes less than half a dozen rebels to stop here getting ANYTHING through, including a hard brexit.
Joseph Harris
So is bipartisanship not a thing in Britain? Don't both sides want free trade with EU without paying dues? Most of what the right wants is what the lefts wants as well if they still are set to leave the EU. I don't get why this is such a big deal.
Samuel Powell
Corbyn would of done no better than he did this time, it was expected he'd lose in 2020. The reason she called it early though was almost certainly that she thought there was a very real chance he'd of quit before then, denying her the landslide she'd get against him.
It would of worked too, if only she was competent.
Blake Carter
No matter what May negotiates, Labour will try to portray is as a bad deal and vote against it for political reasons (it probably will be as well now desu).
Michael Johnson
All banter aside I really don't want the brits that weak. This could kill Europe.
Kevin Peterson
We have the same thing in the US, we bring the left into negotiations to give them buy in. Both sides have their nuts on the line to make it work and both sides get to look good being at the table. Is that not a thing?
Left gets a token picture of them at the bill signing and the right gets everything they want.
Oliver Torres
Stay salty, Labourcuck. She is in No. 10, Commie Corbyn is crying in his cuck shed.
Josiah Wilson
>would of
HAVE. IT'S HAVE, YOU FUCKING ILLITERATE CRETIN. LEARN ENGLISH OR FUCK OFF TO EUROPE.
Brandon Hall
Opinions are deeply divided even within parties.
Even having a small majority makes it difficult to pass anything, let alone not having a majority and being totally dependent on another party to barely make up the numbers. The majority of Conservative MPs do not align with the DUP so they're not going to be able to pass anything that doesn't appeal to the Labour blairites, eg: gay marriage.
Blake Garcia
Anybody that voted for her is a retard. Thanks for the internet control you fucking morons
Austin Watson
DUP will Bend The Knee or face the consequences. This is all part of Prime Minister May's plan.
Jordan Smith
It must be very self-comforting to be this blinkered from reality.
Jose Allen
>"muh (((freedom))) and (((privacy)))" This is the ony effective way to fight the pedos and terrorists.
Daniel Adams
Why?
Logan Jenkins
When will people realize that the current wishes of the global elites is chaos? Literally that's all that matters now. WAKE THE FUCK UP!
Camden Gonzalez
>chaos That is what Corbyn would have given us. Theresa May will give us a Strong and Stable government.
Jordan Lopez
We have bipartisan committees on many things, but I've very rarely seen the idea floated around to have a bipartisan brexit negotiating team. It would be impossible for May to d this, as sher made her main selling point on the campaign how she should be the one negotiating Brexit and how terrible it would be it Labour were to do it. Politically theres no way she could do it without being forced out by her own party.
It might be possible for a new leader to do it, but then we have a whole new set of problems.
Nathaniel White
CORBYNF WON!!!
Ummm... no sweetie, he lost by a massive margin. Theresa May won by over FIFTY SEATS
She is the true winner. She is who the British people chose (especially the ones who contribute to the economy). Any time a corbynf supporter tries to brag, I laugh HARD in their face, and educate them with the facts. It feels good being on the right side of herstory. Corbynf is literally the least popular candidate of all time.
Jaxon Miller
What consequences?
They're not even forming a coalition.
Nicholas Reyes
Labour would fuck it up. May knows what needs to be done.
John Moore
ummmm no sorry sweetiecums, Corbyn is the real winner, and mummy may is going to lose her job soon.
Michael Fisher
I'm not SAYING I was hoping for DUP coalition, but they are even more right-wing than the tories. Exactly the 2 parties we need in power to fight terrorism and the EU (because it WILL be a fight) >Muh liberty >Muh Privacy MUH FUCKING DEAD BODIES ON OUR STREETS
Ryan Campbell
Yeah maybe, but she won't be able to get enough MPs to vote for it.
Samuel Rivera
Literally why is the UK election so confusing? I just want to know very simply: who will keep the muzzies out and promote an end to the EU?
Someone give me my Russian fix, because I'm not sensing it in this election.
Bentley Sanders
Still better than corbyn and all the fuck commies in his party
Gabriel James
>call an election when you think your 50 points ahead >lose your majority
J U S T
Asher Butler
>controlling the internet will stop another muslim driving a vehicle into people
Lincoln Parker
>won by over FIFTY SEATS
shes going to lose if she stays leader, she may have won by 50 seats.
but labour gained 30. and places liek canterbury too, places that were conservative since the fucking 1800's. you have no idea what you're talkign about.
she has to go, and do it quick before corbyn wins. this govt wont last, there'll be another election in 6 months if she doesn't resign, its the end.
Brayden Myers
>parroting actual Tory Buzzwords. Are you a retard of a straight up shill?
Why do you hate internet freedom?
Cooper Gonzalez
>who will keep the muzzies out and promote an end to the EU?
Neither.
Nolan Harris
So she could have waited 3 years for the real election but (((SHE))) wanted a stronger mandate? Sound like bitch logic. A man would have waited till the end! Theresa Gay!
Dominic Johnson
OP just described my cunt fucker asshole parents. Cunt fucker assholes.
Daniel Rivera
Now I definitely know you're either trolling or a fucking idiot.
May has significantly weakened her hand and her own position as leader of her party and this country is dangling by a thread. The vultures are circling and her answer is to make a power-sharing deal with one of Northern Ireland's two main opposing parties, putting the peace process in potential jeapardy.
All of this just days before we start negotiating with the EU for the very future of this country. If that's not chaos, I don't know what is.
William Hernandez
youtu.be/Ixwq3KJwy54 Oh god she is so boring. Shit you put a wood board as the leader of your nation to win a critical popularity contest?
She has no passion or vision. Running on "Strength" for conservatives is just saying yes we are still conservatives without adding anything new. For fucks sake guys if you ran a rock on fire it would be more relatable to an average voter.
Jason Hill
Pretty sure the DUP have already said they want a soft Brexit, and want to avoid a hard border with the rest of Ireland. They're worried about what a Hard Brexit would bring for northern Ireland.
Anthony Mitchell
Basically yeah, she could of had a workable majority for the next three years, and could pick whenever she wanted as most favourable to her in that time to have an election. She squandered it, refused to do any debates, and now won't be able to pass any right wing policies even with the DUPs help. There are some very good conservative politicians around, if she doesn't leave for one of them very soon Corbyn will take the next, inevitably very soon election.
Robert Howard
>MUH FUCKING DEAD BODIES ON OUR STREETS
>snoopers charter >3 consecutive terror attacks in 1 month >we need more regulation
No, we dont need more regulation, we need mroe FUCKING ACTUAL POLICE OFFICERS YOU KNUCKLE DRAGGING TROGLODYTE.
this is common sense, how the fuck cant you get it through your thick skull. Under MAY's Governemnt these attacks happened, she FAILED britain and now supports a terorrist party the DUP's. she arms saudi arabia on top of that and backs israel.
She let ISIS veterans back into the UK without vetting, but somehow regulating the internet is going to help? Literally what?
I used to be conservative, but they've all respect from me and legitimacy in general.
Xavier Jackson
>but somehow regulating the internet is going to help? The internet is a hiding place for terrorists and pedophiles. Remove the hiding place, remove the threat.
Nolan Ramirez
She only became conservative leader because everyone else dropped out. If she had to actually campaign for it, everyone would of seen how bad she was at campaigning and she'd of had no chance.
If she fucks off and someone better comes in, the next election could be salvaged.
Grayson Reyes
Let's put bug everyone's house to make sure they're not planning terrorist attacks in their 'private property' safe space, top!
Luke White
I thought they were /ourguys/
Christian Barnes
Well I cant blame that. Trump got the primary win because of the timing of everyone else dropping out did not allow the base to rally around another moderate when Jeb failed. Poor turtle man.
Jaxon Morales
They're Christian fundamentalists who don't believe in dinosaurs.
Noah Moore
As I said. /ourguys/
Wait what is their stance on all that internet bullshit? Will they go along with it?
Charles Thompson
>Will they go along with it? Theresa May holds all the cards. They will do what she tells them to do.
William Bennett
Yes.
As will most of the Labour party.
Julian Morris
Didn't the UK come out of this election with a stronger Brexit force in their government? How is that not a absolute victory in every regard? Oh right, I forgot >eternal kraut lays lurking
Kayden Cox
You still haven't answered what May will do if they don't vote with the Conservatives on everything.
Jason Hill
>Didn't the UK come out of this election with a stronger Brexit force in their government?
No.
Xavier Diaz
You see what they do to pro-trump anons? They are going to do it to you now, too. Hope you are ready, bongfriend.
Christian Hernandez
CON+DUP does seem more hard brexit than just CON to me.
Jordan Richardson
>reddit spacing I think it is best to believe the opposite of what you tell me. Good for Britain. I hope they get the Brexit through as soon as possible. Hard Brexit as well, fuck the EU.
Nolan Myers
The more likely answer is that she'll fail to pass anything even remotely right wing, even if the DUP vote with her, due to rebels in her own party.
Luke Evans
The DUP support a soft brexit.
Christopher Flores
At least Americans know how to use punctuation.
Josiah Morales
CON+DUP has a majority of 2. CON before had a majority of 12. That's more, Hanz.
Kayden Reyes
But not all Tories are for Hard Brexit are they? I thought many of them secretly want a soft Brexit.
Nicholas Ward
>DUP supports soft brexit to cater to toreys >DUP joins to make coalition, creating a more right-leaning party You can't have it both ways, lad.
Austin Harris
>She is damaged goods and she must go. If not by her own free will, then she must be forced out.
Here user, good luck.
Chase Richardson
I get the impression the tories were "for Brexit" only so far as it ensures their political domination. Merryweathers, essentially. Hopefully the DUP push them to actually get something done in regards to Brexit.
Asher Reyes
Yeah, but that's still the case. If, say, 4 backbench tories don't want to vote for their hard brexit, it won't get past. Before, they could of handles that, and still had DUP votes to push them over the edge if they agreed with it.
Samuel Long
They're not even making a coalition. The DUP won't do anything to the Conservative party because most of them are cucks who would have no problem voting against anything socially right wing.
It's not a secret.
Ryder Gomez
Umm sorry not sorry honeycakes, May has been chosen by the people. Not only she got the largest share of the votes, but also the largest amount of seats and it fell upon her to form a government with our friends at the DUP, as requested per her Royal Highness, Queen Elizabeth II. Corbynf has been utterly BTFO and the british people have made known they REJECT his brand of toxic politics as well as his dubious relations with terrorist groups such as the IRA and Hamas. Try not to cry yourself to sleep over this, it's gonna be a long 10 years. Oh that's right, I said 10. Because May will make a success of a Hard Brexit and will win again by a huge majority in 2022.
Logan Thomas
May has taken our country back. She is the supreme leader this country needs.
I can't wait until he repeals the disgrace that are the shitty EU human rights laws so she can detain who she wants for whatever she wants. You think Corbyn wouldn't be in jail right now if it wasn't for those shitty EU laws?
Hopefully in 5 years time she'll detain the opposition and just take the country for herself and silence those bleeting kids who just want free money and free healthcare like they don't have to work for it like everyone else has had to throughout british history.
