OMG - I just got back from walking my friend's dog and checked in here and got this news. Pretty soon, I will need no other internet sites except for this one ;-)

Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None.
Final Act: Theresa May drives triumphantly to Buckingham Palace to tell the Queen that she intends to head Her Majesty's Government.
Theresa May is ushered by a flunky into a Royal Chamber for a Punchdrunk experience with the Queen.
The Queen smiles sweetly, asks Theresa May to kneel before her, then produces a ceremonial sword and chops off her head.

And now according to the BBC Cameron's saying that he'll be out this week and May can take over on Wednesday. I have this image of him slapping her on the arm and running off saying "You're it!"

The words "rats" and "sinking ship" keep coming to mind.

Theresa May is basically like Fortinbras, nowhere to be seen for most of the play then turning up among the wreckage and dead bodies and taking power

Theresa May is basically like Fortinbras, nowhere to be seen for most of the play then turning up among the wreckage and dead bodies and taking power But she has always been the sensible option in comparison to Osborne, Johnson, Gove, Leadsom, Crabb and Fox. |

She always appears to me when someone has done something a bit naughty, as someone who would say 'oh, I am going to tell on you'.

Hey, at least Cameron was singing a little ditty when he hopped back into number 10 after the interview. Love the 'right....good' at the end

So we're about to have a new Prime Minister. I hope she fills the cabinet with her buddies and refers to them all as "darling". And it will be a tragic loss of an opportunity if she doesn't serve them all snacks that make them tremble with flatulence.

So let me venture a guess: The successor of Nigel Farage as head of the UKIP will be ... Nigel Farage?

I wonder how easy it would be to personally secede from the United Kingdom. If enough people do it then it might actually be possible. Of course it will mean that Great Britain will end up looking like an economy-size version of Baarle-Nassau but that will only add to its character, although having to go through thirty eight border crossings to get to the shops will be a bit of a pain.

I'm off to watch Passport to Pimlico. It's practically a guide on how to do it.
