    I don’t know all that much about Theresa May (except that she’s a filthy Tory), but I do know her elevation will result in all kinds of vapid thinkpieces on our side of the pond comparing her to Hillary Clinton and opining loftily about the status of feminism. Bleargh.

      Let me put it this way: May thinks that the surveillance state in a UK covered in CCTVs hasn’t gone far enough. She also shares a lot of the political views of the last female PM.

      That was my impression of her too, but I didn’t want to say much since I’m honestly not that familiar with UK politics.

      The ready Thatcher comparison is pre-annoying me because of the aforesaid vapid thinkpieces. There are already deluded people here who think Clinton is the second coming of the Iron Lady. And there’s already a Sanders-like figure in Corbyn. Hold on to your butts—hot takes are coming!

      If you fuck a pig with a lambskin condom, is that, like, a bestiality three-way, or do they cancel each other out?

    This article needs a Pokemon Go angle before I can consider it relevant to my interests.

      You haven’t heard about the new Pokemon you can find outside 10 Downing Street? It’s Porkulon, who has interesting effects on Squirtles owned by extremely posh Tories.

      He was to national affairs what Basil Fawlty was to hotel administration, if Manuel was dragged from Fawlty Towers by skinheads and beaten.

        please tell me it was a “little ditty about Jack Wittleton-Birmsworth and Diane Fotheringill-Tricklebank, two British kids growing up in the heartlandworthshire.”

          It never, never, never ends well for a British Prime Minister. So this is about as best as could be expected for old David.

            This is kind of a base setting of parliamentary systems. Where as term limits get you turned out popular or not, even in parliamentary systems with term limits the leader is almost always turned out do to unpopularity.
