Theresa May is not gansta enough to ban her from pubs


I like it a lot, but, contrary to recent depictions aboe, I don't believe Theresa really likes pubs all that much. You'd have to ban her from weekly coven meetings or something to have any effect.

Theresa May could be banned from every pub in her constituency following anger from bar owners over police cuts. Landlords have reportedly banded together to keep the Prime Minister away from all licensed venues in Maidenhead after she slashed police budgets by £413m in the last 12 months. The group said it could now take up to one hour for police to respond to incidents at their pubs, which endangered their staff and customers.

 David Kimber, manager of the Off the Tap pub, told The Mirror: “This seems to be the only way she’ll get the message.”

    I doubt if she has been in a pub since getting an utterly inferior Second in Geography.
