          Today we have a hugely diminished PM. Her authority is destroyed and her position is now untenable. She always makes the wrong call. (5/7)

          Her judgement is poor and she clearly cannot now lead us into Brexit negotiations. There is no question that she has got to go. (6/7)

          The PM asked the country for a huge majority to deliver the hardest hard Brexit. The country said no. This is the end for hard Brexit. (7/7)

        Let's be fair, the diluted Tories that was the previous 'Labour' party did. This is the 'proper' Labour party, FOR THE MANY, NOT THE FEW

        You underestimate the level of support if you think it is limited to the working class. All decent minded people were behind this.
