With Theresa May offering to stand down in exchange for Tory MPs voting for her rubbish Brexit deal, it got people thinking about what recent Conservative prime ministers have had in common.

And these 5 people absolutely nail it.

Recent careers of Conservative Prime Ministers:

Margaret Thatcher (1979-90): Destroyed by civil war over EU.
John Major (1990-97): Destroyed by civil war over EU.
David Cameron (2010-16): Destroyed by civil war over EU.
Theresa May (2016-19): Destroyed by civil war over EU.

How to be a Tory prime minister:
-Start a stupid fucking thing
-Fuck off to avoid consequences

The last few Tory leaders:

William Hague – Messed up, resigned.
Iain Duncan Smith – Messed up, resigned.
Michael Howard – Messed up, resigned.
David Cameron – Messed up, resigned.
Theresa May – Messed up, resigned.

Can you see the pattern yet?

It’s not like a Prime Minister to lumber the country with some terrible idea and then fuck off.

loving this trend of prime ministers we have where they mess everything up, lose a vote and then leave someone else to deal with it
