Prime Minister May’s government did not fall, nor has President Tяump’s. Both are abject failures at accomplishing their primary missions – Nationalism! (racism), Nationalism! (xenophobia), and Nationalism! (elitism) – and they will have to wait until the next election to see what their respective fates will be.
Self-governance is bloody hard, and citizens apparently need more motivation than just-the-average-incompetence elected officials usually provide. Ms. May and Mr. Tяump could each end up with a fantastic ‘legacy’ for inspiring citizens to take matters into their own hands by actually turning out to vote.
Cautionary tales ain’t in it – voters (and refuse-nicks) in the U.K and the U.S. really, really blew it last time. Better days – and public servants – ahead!
Oops. Theresa May passes the test in the House of Commons. I think Mikey just doesn’t like her because she didn’t support his hero, Dumb Dotard — and the Brexiters.
Of course, the option — Jeremy Corbyn — isn’t very well liked even though he’s in favor of staying in the EU too.
Looks like the “rational” leader of Britain’s Conservative Party is faring no better than the one in the U.S. Couldn’t possibly be a flaw in 21st Century Conservatism, could it?

May has survived the no confidence vote, but Corbyn of Labour has said that they will not agree to a no-deal Brexit.
I think Carlson has a better take on the situation than Ramirez.

Too bad we don’t have no confidence votes in this country.

Thatcher has damaged Britain and her influence still reigns like a horrid ghost.

There is nothing good in Brexit for the people of Britain, re vote. Just stay in the EU and buck it up.
