So - the constitution of the UK is unwritten and therefore takes some interpretation but as things stand unless and until a coalition can be formed the country is officially being run by the Queen, Hugh Grant and J K Rowling. Parliament has relocated to the beach front in Brighton and Fat Boy Slim is providing the tunes. Personally I hope this lasts.

I can't help but think of that episode of The Young Ones where Rik repeatedly shouts "Hands up who likes me!" Never a good move ...

Well at least the next few months (weeks?) will be interesting. Or more likely disastrous. I still find it hard to believe how many people can vote for Corbyn.
I think they voted for soft Brexit, not Corbyn.

I didn't vote for Jeremy Corbyn. I voted for my constituency candidate. Whatever Mrs. May might think, we don't have presidential elections here.

Yeah - you already saw how great that worked out for us/US when people voted for party instead of simply paying attention.

Don't worry - much more likely to break into a lexical debated as to why the parliament is "hung" and not "hanged". :)

Well, stables are generally pretty full of of something, and most governments are full of the same stuff, if from a different species! :laugh:

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

Let's never forget that one of us here ran off to become a politician, no matter with what success. Just a few days ago I contemplated doing the same.

A friend once said that one day they would elect me, the next day we would be at war with someone. He did not mean my chaotic alignment. He commented on my unpresidented diplomacy and love for compromise. :-)
