How do we now reunite our country?

BRITISH politics has been through a series of unprecedented changes in the last few weeks. Many believe it has been shambolic and embarrassing for the parties and people involved. But how do our Jury think new PM Theresa May will fare? And what do they believe the future is for the Labour Party? Do they think Jeremy Corbyn was right to hang on or should he have stepped down?

I think we need to give Theresa May and the new cabinet a chance to see how they perform. If they make a mess of it, then we can press for a general election. Paul Strathdee, Glasgow.

Westminster just seems a total mess. I worry about discredited politicians like Boris Johnson and Liam Fox running foreign matters. Surely we in Scotland can run our own affairs better than this? Stephen Calder, Peterhead.

Mrs May seems to be making some important statements about what her vision for the future is. If she can succeed, our future looks bright. I only hope everyone will be willing to give her a chance to do the things she wants to do. Lorna Smith, North Yorkshire.

Corbyn should step down. Very few people want him there and his presence has clearly divided the party at a crucial time. Alastair Bruce, Livingston.

The Labour Party is fractured, maybe fatally. It is becoming clear the MPs are not on the same wavelength as the party rank-and-file. Maybe there are too many Blairites left in Parliament. David Collins, Scissett.

It is probably best if someone shuts Nicola Sturgeon up. Hugh McHardy, Keith.

I believe Corbyn was right to hang on. But the Labour Party at the moment is a total embarrassment. Linda Cox, Aberdeen.

The infighting and backstabbing in both main parties has been a disgrace to both parliament and the country. Unless those responsible actually become responsible we are all in for a very hard time over the next few years. Liz Kelly, Glasgow.

Shut down Westminster and relocate parliament to the north of England. Do it now and Scotland might stay part of the Union. Andrew Rennie, Falkirk.
