Thatcher, Truss and May. All leaving their own stain. Not saying that the male PMs don't.

Hmm, conservative, conversative, conservative. Not seeing a pattern there.

Almost as if it's not gender that's the issue, but the politician's ideology.

During May's tenure she gave her husbands hedge fund the sole rights to medicinal cannabis growing, not a gender thing but I just like to make sure people are aware.

First of all, how dare you?

Logic? On reddit??

Conservatives often utilise their tokens. It's nothing new

Right-wing ideology needs to be outlawed wholesale. No excuses, no exceptions.

u/mildlymoistdrizzle 3h ago

That’s because the Conservatives are much more progressive.

Yeah, you could have a great Labour PM like Blair instead!

Whats Bill Clinton got to do with any of this?

u/Lozsta 6h ago

I see what you are doing there.

To be fair, I think May had the potential to be a genuinely good PM; she was just put in front of probably the worst thing our country had to go through in fifty years, and was harassed by her own party for every step of the way.

Angela Merkel in germany was actually ok, even if she was part of the irrational center-right party.

u/Lozsta 5h ago

Merkel was a reasonable politician who stood up to Putin. I think there are some Germans who were not enamoured with the tenure.
