Hello - I'm Theresa May

@DorkySupergirl Said

what is section 28 about?

I think we need to take the views of some people regarding The incoming government with a bit of a pinch of salt.

There are certain posters who are hard line left-wingers of the old Labour Party who are just bitter and twisted because the country dumped their beloved Gordon Brown at the election a fortnight ago.

The phrase "Bad Losers" springs to mind.

Basically, any post on here emanating from Scotland may quite possibly come from a hardline socialist source. Perhaps readers might like to bear that in mind. The new government is actually greatly impressing the general British public in its early days. Honeymoon period..? Possibly, but a good start is a good start.

To be honest, Theresa May isn't exactly my cup of tea either. It is true that she has strong views on homosexuals and that obviously affects me. However, she is now a part of a government that has, today, produced a document of intent which, if enacted in the lifetime of the Parliament will be radical and reforming, but fair and will actually replace a lot of the "Big Government" state control that the Labour Party forced on a largely unwilling populace over 13 years.

The Labour Party did some good things for social justice during their time in office, that can't be denied..... I wouldn't be married now if they hadn't brought in the Civil Partnerships Act.... but other things, such as The Surveillance Society (Britain has more surveillance cameras watching the public than any other country on earth), and the National ID Card Scheme caused deep mistrust and division in the country.

Those Conservatives of hard line views in the government should have their wings clipped by the coalition leadership. I hope that is how it will work out. I'm quite sure the Scottish hardcore socialist element on this site will naysay to that, but then again, they would.

I don't know if the coalition government will or won't work. I don't have a crystal ball that can predict the future. But our country was ruled by rotten "Big Brother" government for a long time and we now have a leadership that is talking the talk of a new start and a new politics.... and goodness knows, we need it.....

Can Cameron / Clegg walk the walk..? Well, they have five years to do it. I think they should be given a fair crack of the whip.

I thought she was Home Secretary?

Or is she doing both?

@jmo Said

Both, the title has changed to Home Secretary and Minister for Equality.

And she's prejudiced against the gays.

@ninozara Said

I think Samantha needs to give her husband a good slap then

What was the point of giving her both jobs? Like, surely there are enough MP's that they can spread it out. And it just makes more work for her (I imagine).

@jmo Said

It's the same post but incorporates both roles. Equality is fairly low on the Conservatives ideas or wants. If equality gets in the way of freedom they chose freedom, part of their essential ideology.

I\'ve changed my mind on gay adoption, says Theresa May
