The media and the opposition will always go after weakness in the government. The trick is how strong the government is, how much material they give them and how they act when something goes wrong. May seems unwilling or unable to take action.

I can imagine far worse chaos if Jeremy was in power without a clear majority. In fact I can hardly bring myself to think about it. Yet this is what we will get if we're not careful, so we should back off and let her do her job.
And for those who would like to see Marxist Jeremy in power, be careful what you wish for, comrades. You might get more than you bargained for (and I'm certainly not talking money here!).

Maybe she shouldn't have called the election and then taken the electorate for granted. It's the Government's fault we're in this mess and that Corbyn has a realistic prospect of getting into No 10. No 10 and the Cabinet seem to be in total disarray with Minsters going freelance if they're not backstabbing each other. Expecting charity from the opposition and media is naive.
