Hope she can steer the Country to a prosperous future.
That the Great thing about England.
Anybody can become anything.
Bet it wouldnt happen in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan.
Ohh
another fact ....im on a role today...lol
Oh that is jolly marvelous. It has diddly squat to do with ye ole Kingdom in the middle.
That is great news, I do love British women, so frigid and stoic in public, but when you get them home, you have to dry out the sheets every day. Actually where is our favorite pirate or parrot with a Blackbeard comment on this.

CONGRATS PHIL, hitting 10000 points and nobody clapped, tough crowd.
Oh that is jolly marvelous. It has diddly squat to do with ye ole Kingdom in the middle.
Avast me hearties. The fresh scullery wench be a fair wind from the sea.
Tis to be a tough job fer a lady cappum with pirates and buccaneers in the hold an' changing the course of that old barge will need a steady hand on the helm.
Batten down ye hatches for a season or two an' there be smooth seas ahead. 'Ole Blighty has some knowledge of trecherous shoals an' she come out 'tother side with her keel intact.
"twill be some interesting times on the horizon
nzteacher80:
I fear before long there will be seamen all over her poop-deck.
Skeppo:
Foresooth, she'd better keep her poop deck ship shape or she may discover the woe of being a sea dog's horn pipe or the high watch's cockpit. Iron Lady II, she be keepin' ye ole shite locker well packed since that scurvy bilge rat scurried down the lines ashore to find 'nothrr pig for his fellation station.
hopin' she's the 'iron' lady uk needs to handle brexit.
"Bet it wouldnt happen in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan."
Benazir Bhutto (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benazir_Bhutto) - female prime minister of Pakistan, 1988-1990, & 1993-1996.
And, just FTR - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_female_political_leaders (please note that some of those countries had Muslim female leaders before.... Australia, Canada, NZ, virtually ALL of Europe - except Thatcher in the UK, in Norway, and Portugal - and obviously, the US of A...).
Let the downvotes proceed....
Skeppo:
Avast ye Shining Brown. Buggery on th high seas be your game?. Ye be the most petty scullery catamite to disgrace this here port o call.
Shining_brow:
@'Skeppo' - still using this sock-puppet account, hey wolf??
@Phil - And that makes the fact you were actually wrong - ok... how, exactly?? Especially as it very much looks like she was assassinated for political reasons - not religious!
iWolf:
Ouch! It seems the pirate's parrot hit the mark. Besmirching said parrot with clownish accusations doesn't help anyone.
As to Ms Bhutto, Islam politics and religion generally go hand in hand. No one has accepted responsibility to my limited knowledge of the subject but from memory I believe it was suggested it was something to do with treatment and recognition of the mujahadeen (spelling anyone?).
But that's not the point, is it? Point scoring on a pathetic crusade is the real motivation. Stick to flipping burgers.
Shining_brow:
@wolf - IP addresses will tell!
As for Benazir Bhutto... common thought seems to be that the incumbent president's party had something to do with it, given that she was looking like she would win the next election. A UN inquiry specifically used words such as 'incompetence' and "irresponsible', pointing (coyly?) towards a governmental conspiracy.
And - you're right! The pathetic point-scoring attack against Muslims (and their apparent lack of willingness to appoint female leaders) failed... badly!
You're also right in that religion and politics go hand in hand - that is human nature! Very few countries are free of that :( Just take a look at that bastion of Catholicism, Italy... and the number of assassinations they've had in their political history.
iWolf:
Ha ha ha. You really are a burger flipping clown. Ever heard of a dynamic ip address? There's the first hole in your paranoid delusion. Another is the fact you think your deluaions warrant someone being bothered to search for something that only exists in your sad little mind. Next, admin seldon replies to anything even if it important....and I'm assuming your paranoia is pretty low on their apathetic list of waste of time whines from sad, small minded, impotent, little winging cry babies. And I'll have a large coke and fries with that. Take away! Chop chop!
Shining_brow:
""political or religious reasons." Theres a difference ?"
Often, no.
In this case - probably! the assassination looks far more likely to be because she was likely to win a third term as PM, and so was bumped off because of it (she was considered fairly successful in her previous terms, although rife with corruption allegations). Security personnel from outside the country were denied visas. Police didn't do their job. Her second car - to be used in precisely this type of event - left. It looks very much like a government plot to have her eliminated.
Either way - irrelevant! There have been female Muslim Prime Ministers in power before MOST of the western world - the bastions of democracy and secularism.
retiredinchina:
Just for accurate clarification, this female became the leader because of her wealthy family and her WESTERN education, something that would not happen in her own country for other females.
Shining_brow:
Just for REALLY accurate clarification...
She became leader because she was voted in! And, by a large number of Muslim men!!!
Now, please explain your racist attitudes and why the US still hasn't had a female president? And why the 'reason' you reckon she was made leader still wasn't a good enough reason for (most of) the rest of the world... I suspect it will be much easier for you to do this, than to actually admit that maybe your views regarding Muslims may not actually be accurate (ie, you are wrong) - even in the face of irrefutable evidence.

I hope this guy is wrong, but I doubt my 10 percent optimism is going to help.
