"We don't even know if the next PM will last long enough for anyone to learn their name, so why bother putting in all that effort?"

    the last FIVE prime ministers didn’t reach 5 years. the longest serving was Theresa Fucking May.

    there’s currently 8 (soon to be NINE) living former prime ministers. That’s fucking ridiculous. If they actually served 5 years each, that would have taken 45 bloody years, and you’d think some of them would have died by then.

      This means being prime minister is a rather achievable goal now. Anyone could make it.

      might as well use cabbages instead of human PMs.

    if i counted right (and some days that’s not necessarily a ‘given’)…

    the next will be the 81st prime minister since 1721; and more than likely, the 59th person to hold that office.

        non-consecutive repeats, or counting re-elections
