Borrowed time - When will May cease to be prime minister.

Many of the young could have been taken in by the fake Labour social media accounts and the use of bots to generate them. The UK has a problem. Many younger people use social media and it was social media that was used to set up false accounts using bots and the like to influence people to vote Labour. So it is not certain that more young people voted in this election because they were influenced by the Labour leader. They could have been influenced by the fake accounts on social media which were generated by people who wanted to undermine democracy.

Every law bar none in every nation is enforced at the point of a gun when boiled down to the very last point of possible resistance to a law.

When resisting arrest requires you to be armed, those doing the arresting will be doing so at the point of a gun. Philosophy, one so learned as yourself ought to understand this little nugget I would think. All should.

Every example of wealth redistribution by the state is done at the point of a gun. It is quite an entry level understanding of the rule of law in philosophy. If there was no threat of violence there would be less compliance than we already see. Those who don't comply when faced with the threat of violence often are on the receiving end of violence.

I don't think I look so stupid now I've spelt it out for you.

May will survive for a good while. Not because she is brilliant at her job or anything, but because the Tory grandees want her to take the flak.

Then if it all goes belly up, they can anoint a successor who will sort it all out. Ha ha ha ha ha.

Ask yourselves who is waiting in the long grass!
