2 V Good 'Another Angry Voices': 1) I've already had 2 people tell me that they 'feel sorry' for May Archived Message Posted by marknadim on March 13, 2019, 5:50 am "I've already had two people try to tell me that they 'feel sorry' for Theresa May after her latest self-inflicted humiliation because she's apparently 'done her best under difficult circumstances'. This pity narrative is freakishly absurd, and it's a demonstration of how servile and subservient the mainstream media have been towards Theresa May and the Tories that people actually ended up spouting this absolute ridiculousness. What Theresa May needed to do after the Brexit vote in 2016 was to establish a national Brexit Commission to decide what Britain actually wanted. The Brexit Commission should have included representatives from all major political parties, the devolved governments, UK businesses, trade unions, charities and the voluntary sector, civic society, academics and experts, experienced trade negotiators ... But what Theresa May actually did was to deliberately turn Brexit into a closed Tory shop to be run exclusively for the benefit of the Tory party. She later included the hard-right DUP sectarians after she needed to bribe them into propping up her shambles of a government after her spectacularly failed vanity election (which stemmed from her desire to "crush" all opposition to her autocratic rule so she could run Brexit as an even more closed Tory shop), but aside from opening the door to the most rabid bunch of bigoted, hard-right, science-denying, Christian fundamentalists in Westminster, she's deliberately locked everyone else out of the process. She should have tried to establish what parliament, businesses, and the people wanted from Brexit before she ever even considered invoking Article 50 and setting the clock ticking. That nobody knows what Britain actually wants just 17 days before departure date is utterly extraordinary, and entirely unprecedented in international diplomacy, and the blame for this chaos and uncertainty lies squarely with the Tories for creating Brexit and then for doing such a lamentable job of administering the process. And the most blameworthy individual of all is Theresa May for continually prioritised the interests of the Tory party above the nation as a whole. That people are actually opining that they feel sorry for her under these extraordinary circumstances of her own creation is a sad indictment of British politics, the British media, and sadly, British society as a whole." http://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2409404975766068&id=185180654855189 Message Thread: 2 V Good 'Another Angry Voices': 1) I've already had 2 people tell me that they 'feel sorry' for May - marknadim March 13, 2019, 5:50 am Re: 2 V Good 'Another Angry Voices': 1) I've already had 2 people tell me that they 'feel sorry' for May - dovetailjoint March 13, 2019, 6:32 am Re: 2 V Good 'Another Angry Voices': 1) I've already had 2 people tell me that they 'feel sorry' for May - dovetailjoint March 13, 2019, 8:05 am We get a lot here about Corbyn - Keith-264 March 13, 2019, 9:58 am Sympathy ...
