Only a general election can give the next government a mandate
There is nothing stopping Theresa May from putting forward a motion for an election - and the Liberal Democrats would back it Just over a year after the last general election, the Conservatives have plunged the UK into chaos with David Cameron gambled with the country on Brexit, and now a Tory leadership election has turned into a coronation.

What about the languages?
With the referendum already having had a number of impacts on the value of the pound and the political stability of the UK, what impact will it have on the education of future generations and, more specifically, regarding language education? It seems that people forget what a huge influence the European Union has had on our workers' rights and the contribution towards farmers, the NHS, Cornwall… this list could go on forever, but has anyone really thought about the ability for our children to learn languages? Language education is already at risk due to Nicky Morgan and the rest of the department for education, with the majority of language teachers having to teach at least two languages, with French being the main language and a number of schools not offering German or Spanish, despite Spanish growing in popularity.

So, how do we get to the Promised Land?
It's nearly three weeks since we voted to leave the European Union, and already some of my predictions are unravelling. As it drifts off into the North Atlantic the ship of state is already about to have a new captain, whilst the reserve crew still can't decide whether they want to be a party of protest or a party of government. You have to hand it to the Tories. What chutzpah! Having had to deal with them in local government over the past thirty years or so I have got to admire that instinct for survival and ability to draw their wagons into a circle that is the envy of other parties, who still have the unfortunate habit of continually washing their dirty linen in public. However, what they often say about each other in private is a different matter!
