More pressure on May to quit after new poll disaster – but she’s not going anywhere
Theresa May: Don’t expect her to get into a car to Buckingham Palace to offer her resignation any time soon.
Since the Mirror story (below) came out, another poll has put the Conservative Party fifth, below the Liberal Democrats and the Greens.

But Mrs May still isn’t going anywhere.
And the situation keeps getting worse for the Tories.
Have they actually defaulted on the rent for their HQ yet?
Theresa May will be under fresh pressure to quit this week after a new opinion poll put the Conservative Party in third place – after Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party.
The ComRes survey of Westminster voting intention put Farage’s group on 20% and the Tories on 19% – their worst opinion poll rating since 1995. Labour was on 27%.
The pollster’s chairman Andrew Hawkins branded the result a “disaster”, adding: “If the Conservative leadership contenders are not careful, there will be no party for them to lead.”
A second poll by Opinium put the Tories on 22%, one point ahead of the Brexit Party, in a theoretical general election.

We need to worry when they poll behind Change U.K. and she still refuses to go!
Probably better May stays in situ. She and all her policies are totally discredited and in tatters – she will continue to take the Nasty party downhill, but any new (nasty) face might just slightly revive Tory fortunes.
