THERESA May’s catastrophic handling of Brexit has plunged the country into a fresh wave of crises — which is also engulfing the Tory Party. There were leaks from Tuesday’s cabinet meeting with ministers and advisers warning that “it’s chaos” and “it’s like the last days of Rome.” Even Theresa May’s own spokesperson admitted that the UK is in “crisis.”
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn rightly demanded a general election in the aftermath of Theresa May’s 149-vote Brexit vote defeat last week. Now Tory MPs are suggesting a general election may be on the cards. Tory MP Crispin Blunt recommended that Theresa May should call a snap general election to break the Brexit deadlock. Zac Goldsmith MP tweeted: “We are likely heading towards a general election.”
Of course, such a general election would debate our future relationship with Europe. But given the crisis in people’s living standards that election would be much more far reaching.
