The Queen will never express a political opinion and never has. The Royal Family are supposed to be neutral. Saying that, rumour has it the Queen was pleased about Brexit.

Can’t substantiate this post from FF this afternoon .
It suggests the source of the info is the Daily mail political editor .
Maybe just a bullshit post from deltaone to get clicks but often there is no smoke without fire.
This will certainly change the political landscape if the tweets become reality.

Yes it’s absolutely true!! At last! 
She doesn’t need to. Rumour also has it she is no different than the royals of yesteryear, only more covert now.
I read that somewhere too.

Exceeded, not just reached! I think it might be a good day. We could know tonight. @Magog said she would be gone before Christmas. Come on Boris!! He will appoint JRM for Chancellor!
It is odd to have a vote so close to letter being submitted. I hope this is not a stitch up
Maybe the threshold was reached some days ago and Sir Graham Brady kept it to himself whilst he ascertained whether the letters were genuine. I think the clue is in the word “exceeded.”
It would be no surprise if another Remainer gets into the hot seat.

Only if May does not win the leadership challenge. If she does, then she has immunity for another 12 months.

May wins no confidence vote 200 out of 317 but as JRM said, a good number of that 200 were her own cabinet because if they had felt strongly enough to see her out, they likely would have resigned prior to the vote. Also I would think that her speech prior to the vote offering her resignation before the 2020 election likely swayed some votes so I don’t really see that she has much support in her own party. Not sure what this will do for her Brexit deal. So… what is next… A parliamentary motion of no confidence?

She doesn’t have a Brexit deal, she has a Remain in the EU deal

Ok, I am well pissed off. But let’s be objective and look at the facts.
- She will be gone definitely by 2020.
- She has categorically stated no second referendum.
- She has at least 117 of her MP’s voting against her, so the government is in stalemate. Her deal will not go through.
- It is written in law that we will leave the EU in March next year.
Therefore we will crash out on WTO rules.
Usually if over 100 of the Tory MP’s have no confidence in the leader, their position is deemed untenable anyway and they resign. I can’t see May doing that. I hope I am wrong.

I really see this going only two ways… her deal or a new broadly designed referendum…
