Scot, most of your hard cold facts have been about events in the future and have turned out to be wrong.

There are a number. The EU not agreeing to an extension is one that comes to mind considering how much of a ‘hard fact’ you insisted it was.

Seriouslyj, that would be hard to avoid, after all the shenanigans that have gone on to prevent a decent, with agreements, brexit, its seems that some powers that be actively conspire to prevent that from happening, even if I, as a foreigner, have not the slightest idea of who would benefit from that and how.

‘She’s going. She’s not’. ‘There’s a coup. No there’s not’. ‘So and so is plotting such and such. Nope’.

There’s a lot of shenanigans going on over the weekend here. Febrile.

there's enough rumors of a palace revolution to displace her that it makes the news here... it's apparently one livingstone guy who would be her N°2 who'd get the hot seat once she's ousted.

Hard to know. If they replace her it will be with someone temporary - someone ‘acting’ - to see us over the brexit line. They won’t want (and the country doesn’t need) an all out leadership contest in the middle of all that’s going on. Then probably an election. My guess is they’ll stick with her at least for now.

It’s all up for grabs though. A lot of variables.

One things for sure, she's lost any semblance of even a pretence of maintaining authority. It's her own fault. She sliced her own hamstrings with that snap election.
