I'm not going to write about that bastard today (unless something truly amazing happens).
Instead, I'd like to take a moment to talk about Theresa May. British politics don't follow the same grooves and channels that ours do, so trying to fit May into our politics is hard. The only thing I can find out about her is that she was simultaneously good and terrible on civil rights as Home Secretary, and simultaneously against Brexit AND immigration. She strikes me as being a skilled political nut-cutter, without the verbal flamboyance of David Cameron.
Conservatives seem to have rallied around her in precisely the way Labour has not rallied around Corbyn.
If the Lib Dems weren't the Lib Dems, they could really make hay right now....
