Theresa May is never leaving. She has stepped down as leader of the Conservative Party, but she now says that she won't step down as PM until she thinks the new Conservative leader has the confidence of Parliament. As none of the candidates will have the confidence of Parliament, May stays. It's possible that she would still win a vote of confidence, and free from party constraints, who knows what she'll do. Revoke? No deal?

Don't believe a word he says, even if he contradicts himself.

Mrs May's worst thing was running through a wheatfield. Her goody two shoes background didn't make her a prime ministerial success. Nor even someone with a moral compass.
It won't make any difference who the next tory leader is. Democracy has lost its' meaning, What will follow will resemble the last scene from the film "The fall of the Roman Empire". Spivs bidding against each other while the rest of the ne'er-do-wells in Parliament point the self righteous finger at everyone but themselves.

Have you a source for that statement? Can't find any reference on any of the news sites. Sounds improbable.

True, true. But ...
I yam very worried about the spivs queuing up to take the place of the present spivs. Stealin' Yatterbox Lummox for Home Sec, perhaps? A Ron Bankrobber as Chancellor? Nige can be The Speaker, thus ensuring that no one else can speak.
Wot U fink? Should we all start practicing our one-arm salutes yet?
