That Gavin Williamson is one arrogant prick. An ally of May's I wouldn't be surprised if he stabbed her in the back in a leadership bid. It'd be a very Tory thing to do.

There's a case for Churchill himself for his 2nd time during the 50's which was plagued by countries wanting their territory back, him being a racist and eventually him having stroke after stroke, turned to be an utterly pointless and disastrous term.
Anthony Eden ultimately got the brunt of Churchill's problems which is why I struggle to name him as the worst.
Alec Douglas Home didn't even last a full calendar year, by none fault of his but because of that should be considered.

I think as it stands Churchill's 2nd term is definitely the worst but May has plenty of time to top that LOL

 


Jeremy Paxman put David Cameron into room 101 last week and said he was the worst PM for more than 200 years. LOL

Worst post war PM for me. Probably worse than Eden. Argument could be made that Cameron is right behind her.

Only when she has her pig costume on though.
Does she ever take it off?

Holyrood have voted 65 to 61 to scrap the Football Offences Act in Scotland

Will be interesting how they re-write this law.

Vote of no confidence passed to Henry Bolton.

Everyone but 1 person voted against him, that 1 person was himself.

We have ourselves yet another UKIP Leadership challenge

Newly-elect UKIP Leader Henry Bolton already in deep trouble.

His girlfriend just been suspended from the party for saying Meghan Markle's marriage with Prince Harry will taint the royal family and lead to a Black King.

How many leadership elections is that now for them? LOL
