Who cares! What we need is to end Brexit and non of the main parties are willing to admit they can’t deliver Brexit safely. It won’t matter one not who the leader is as parliment and the country are too divided to agree a plan to enact Brexit. RevokeArticle50.

To me this lady deserves an extension over her term she is doing a sterling job beyond articulation of words

Grayling, because none of them know what they are doing.

Tommy Robinson

Gove is the only game in town

But what if she's able to secure a deal, tho, that's unlikely, will it still be wise for her to standdown? wonder4ulworld

A bunch of Bullingdon buddies from the 1890's? No thanks

Toxic Theresa May is the gift that keeps on giving! Vote brexitparty_uk Thank You!

This is like getting rid of a Vauxhall Vectra, then buying......another Vauxhall Vectra 😐

Easier to ask who is not running.

Whoever it is it will be an unelected PM foisted on us by a catastrophically dysfunctional government. We must be included in this. We must have a GE.

Should all be kicked out of office

If Theresa May resigns, we can still deliver the Brexit people voted for | John WhittingdaleTheresa May must follow Margaret Thatcher’s example and stand down, says the Conservative MP John Whittingdale man promises to deliver pizza. (nobody has chosen the toppings, still debating it). Which Brexit is that? What's that then? You can never get anyone to agree what people voted for because it was a deliberate campaign strategy to obfuscate the issue. It's a mess with no solution to keep most people happy.

Tory MPs to Theresa May: Set a date to step down or we'll force you outBackbenchers believe they will suffer in next week's EU elections and that the Withdrawal Agreement bill will be defeated in June. I'll swap her for The Donald. They're are so fixated in getting Theresa May to step down yet non of them have stepped up to what needs fixing. I'm glad these MPs think getting rid of their leader is the main priority!! The whole cabinet, members of parliament and Theresa May should all resign on the same day. All have shown enormous incompetence. All they do is keeping alive internal negative gossip! They are paid huge amount of salaries to do nothing. All should resign NOT just Theresa May.
