Brits in panic?

[Paul Rigby]

A most peculiar situation, though one not entirely dissimilar from the Heath years in two respects:

1) A PM who isn't gung-ho for Cold War; rather, would appear to be pro-detente with Russia and China

2) An economic crisis (which in its present form has effectively compelled massive devaluation, long regarded as a Labour Government preserve, thus storing up inflation)

Third, May gives every indication, not least from the number of Corbynite policies she's nicked, of being more Macmillan than Thatcher.

Time for the CIA and its British fifth-columnists to get to work, I suspect.

I've been thinking about this over the last week or so and I suspect that your analysis is broadly correct. What odds on May still being "in charge" in 12 months time?

Given the enormous turbulence to come in the months ahead, I'd be surprised if anyone wanted the job in the short-term. The Mad Turk was held back for a reason, I've always felt, more interesting than Micheal Gove's swiftness off the mark.

But if she wants to survive longer than that, I think she'd be well advised to take a long, hard look at The Charlatans and the CIA's more overt MSM, most obviously the Aussie Cuckold's stable and the Langley Bros' Torygraph. Both have more skeletons in the closet than even an ex-Home Secretary, and would benefit from complex, protracted and intermittently public scrutiny.
