who?

Will be very interesting over next 4 days to see if TM is broadly perceived as (a) the strong Prime Minister and experienced senior politician who can turn this around - or (b) as the incompetent who caused a lot of it to happen in the first place. This will split opinion and could be the deciding factor on Thursday.

how can she be held responsible for causing a lot of it to happen even considering her last role

May was our version of the Interior Minister before becoming PM so she definitely must be held accountable.

Conservatives cannot claim to be the party of national security now that three terror attacks have occurred on their watch and given they've cut frontline policing between 2010-15 despite warnings that there would be increased risk of terrorism which they dismissed as scaremongering.

They also cut budget for intelligence services in 2011/12.

As much as I loathe May for her incompetence surely this guy should also be pointing the finger towards his mates Cameron and Osbourne who were responsible for imposing austerity budget cuts.

tories attempts to protect the country on the cheap despite an increasing terror threat has caused their luck to finally run out.

There's an election coming up, tragedy or not, you would be surprised if there wasn't some political point scoring to be done. In this case it looks like political infighting among the Tories themselves, seems Cameron and his crew are still bitter at how May knifed him them in the back.

D-Day for the Tories. Queen's Speech.

 

[s28]

The Queens Speech has been watered down to include almost nothing. Jeremy Corbyn described it as thin gruel. There is nothing to 'vote down'.

 

[James]

The vote is 1 week today. Hopefully the acknowledged nothing that is in the Speech gets voted down anyway, and will drive the final nail into the coffin of this abysmal non-government in its infancy.

 

[s28]

It would require Tory rebels to vote it down and that is not going to happen
