    I wonder , given the precedent , if this mean that every female  PM will be hounded out of office by her own party?

    to be fair, I'm not sad to see her go, but not as much as I was glad to see the back of the hate filled bigot that was Thatcher.

    Rocks and hard places seem to the options. 
    I suppose her fate was sealed when Gove promised his support yesterday. He's a man who would never " stab anyone in the back"

    Rightly or wrongly she believes her deal is good and let's not forget it's only the divorce agreement.  It doesn't state who gets the kids or the house or how much maintenance is to be paid for access. 

    All that has still to be negotiated.   Good luck with that.

    I suspect she's utterly exhausted and utterly fed up so it will be small sacrifice to give up the sleepless nights and the venom and the croaky voice if she can get her divorce thru and then gleefully let someone else pick up the poisoned chalice.

    As for what the Tories do to their female prime ministers, at least they had the balls to select a female leader in the first place.  In my experience there is often nothing more chauvinist and patronising towards women than bloody little male Socialists.  Note the capital S.  Socialism with a little "s" is caring, inclusive and nothing without women.
