I've just heard that a Conservative spokesperson has said May "has no intention of resigning". So how long before her party makes her last act as PM another u-turn? :hehe:

Is no majority better than a bad majority?
... May, who demanded an election she’d previously insisted she didn’t want, in order to win a mandate for a Brexit she’d originally opposed, now finds herself in a position she did not anticipate when – with polls giving her a 20-odd-point lead over Jeremy Corbyn – she went to the country.

“Strong and stable” had been the chorus. May tried it out in her victory speech – but Maidenhead was the closest she got to a majority...

I dont think it really matters. A majority of say 5 is a nightmare.

You said he didn't have a snowball's chance in hell. That's clearly been proven wrong.

I'm just spoofing her campaign mantra about Brexit: "No deal is better than a bad deal."

May says she is still PM - with, er, 'Weak 'n Wobbly' leadership...

And you are wrong. He's has an actual chance right now.

How?

May has to loose the vote on the queen's speech in parliament before Corbyn can do anything. Labour have stated that they will not form a coalition.
