Tory Turmoil: Watch Amber Rudd

December 8, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

It is pointless for this blog to entangle itself in the chaotic political situation in which this country finds itself after eight years of Tory led rule, but as the country faces the biggest peacetime crisis in living memory, perhaps ever, the level of fantasizing by one government minister after another is horrific. Everyone talks at cross purposes while declaring they back May and her deal, but at the same time this, that or the other would perhaps be better. There is only one deal and the for good or ill is May’s.  There could have been others but the challenge was beyond the intellectual capacity of any of the hard core Brexiteers. The all know exactly what it is they are against but none offers any clarity of detail as to what it is they are for.

So now it is May or nothing. And of course the arguments have begun about what nothing means, especially as nothing appears ever more likely. Enter Amber Rudd. She is talking sense and arguing her points with clarity. Watch out for her.
