Well it is official. The Tories have appointed Theresa May as PM of the UK, the second women to hold the position. Boris Johnson has also been appointed secretary of foreign affairs for the UK, and David Davis has been made Brexit Secretary.

Hopefully these figures can bring stability to a country which has had a voatile few weeks. Please discuss, but do not go off-topic please. 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

She wasn't my first choice of who I wanted to be PM but I'm now glad it's her. Her introductory speech earlier and the shadow cabinet appointments so far have been great and I'm confident she'll be a great prime minister, and most importantly will deliver Brexit. Still quite sceptical about Phillip Hammond as chancellor but time will tell...



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Best of a bad bunch and I'm not sure about the cabinet appointments yet.

Her record on digital rights, internet surveillance and immigration are questionable.

Full cabinet has been announced. Overall I'm happy with it, though deeply disappointed that Gove has been sacked. He's done a great job as both Education and Justice secretary. Also loving all the butthurt about Boris being foreign secretary lulz

Seriously? The education system is the worst it has been in years and it all happened under his watch.
