http://www.businessinsider.com/conservative-conference-eu-brexit-article-50-birmingham-2016-10The Conservative party is a ticking time bomb ready to explode over the issue of Brexit.
On camera, UK prime minister Theresa May and the rest of the ruling Tory party put on a united front. The prime minister received a standing ovation on Sunday when she declared "Brexit means Brexit and we are going to make a success of it."

Of course, that implies that the end times are upon us, which would likely include a Cubs Series win at the expense of the even-numbered-year Giants.
