THE country is now in limbo and all for the sake of the Tory party.

David Cameron triggered the Brexit referendum and got, for him, the wrong result.

A year later, Theresa May bounced us into a General Election and got, for her, the wrong result.

Despite what they both claim, neither vote was held for the sake of the country; they were purely intended to benefit the Tory party.

But still they are in power, fiddling while Rome burns.

So what next, as the politicians embark on another round of game playing? That is until next month, when they all clear off on their long holidays.
