Will PM Theresa quit? It’s definitely a May be

-

THERESA May’s leadership is still being called into question following her shocking general election performanc­e.

Personally, I think she showed amazing diversity. Let’s face it, it’s not easy to be robotic AND wooden at the same time.

The coalition of chaos is taking shape. The Queen’s Speech has been delayed while negotiatio­ns between the Tories and DUP take place. They obviously don’t want the speech to be hurried, poorly written and read out as if it’s been seen for the first time. As only Theresa May’s supposed to do that.

For their part, the DUP insist they will not ignore devolution. Evolution on the other hand, they can take it or leave it.

On the flip side, Jeremy Corbyn looks like a new man. This week, he seems to have grown even faster than the weeds in his garden. Jezza says he plans to binge watch EastEnders to help him recover from the election.

Meanwhile, May has been given a box set of The Walking Dead. Someone’s told her it’s autobiogra­phical.

It is still silly season though. Did you see Ed Balls doing Gangnam Style with Michael Gove on The Last Leg? It was officially the first sight of Balls and a dobber together on Channel 4 since the last episode of Eurotrash.

In fairness, it’s not uncommon for politician­s to make strange, painful-looking movements around Gove. Though it’s usually after he’s stabbed them in the back.

Gangnam Style, of course, is from South Korea. Whereas Gove just looked like his career was going south. Last we heard from him he was applauding Donald Trump. Or at least that’s what we think he meant when he said “give him a big hand”.

Yes, the final word goes to big Donald, who turned 71 this week. That number of candles meant the cake was so big, Trump insisted it was built by Mexico. First Lady Melania surprised everyone by jumping out of the cake – before running away, screaming for help.

The president was particular­ly pleased at the early birthday present CRISTIANO Ronaldo has become a dad to surrogate twins. One of them’s already made a playful grab for daddy’s nose with his fingers.

After which Ronaldo instinctiv­ely went down, rolled about on the floor for ages and started clutching his face. he received from Vladimir Putin. Last November’s election.

And so to the best one-line summary of Trump I’ve heard all year. A man in his 70s, who wants a golf score in the 60s, his country in the 50s, and a wife in her 20s. You cannae Trump that. ●TO the new Forbes Rich List, where women make up just 16 per cent of the world’s topearning celebs.

Which wouldn’t be so bad – but most are only on the list because they got paid off after breaking up with Johnny Depp. ●NEW reports claim thousands of NHS workers are being trained on the cheap. In other news, sales of popular kids’ game Operation have gone through the roof. Saying nothing.
