>Merkel that favourable
>Putin that unfavourable
Upsetting but not surprising

Why the fuck would that be upsetting? Putin is one of the most corrupt leaders of a "developed" country.

I'd be surprised if most people were even able to recognise some of those eastern leaders.

>Putin that unfavourable
>Upsetting
Why? Do you like him?

Would generally agree. I like Merkel and Macron and dislike or know very little about the other elected leaders although I'd feel somewhat neutral with May and sympathise with the difficult situation shes been thrown into.

>the Pope that high
Pleasantly surprised, thought people hated the Catholic Church now

>I'd feel somewhat neutral with May and sympathise with the difficult situation shes been thrown into.
I can see where you're coming from, but she brought a lot of this on herself by holding that snap election and entering a coalition with the DUP.

>entering a coalition with the DUP
Did she have a choice? Don't think there was another way she could've remained in power?

My point was that she shouldn't have called the election in the first place. By calling it she lost her majority and had to enter into a coalition with the DUP.

>no comment on it in the British media

>shouldn't have called the election in the first place
Was it really that bad of an idea? Sure, in hindsight she fucked up, but everyone said Corbyn hadn't a chance and it would've given them another year or two to deal with Brexit without Labour taking over.
