39% approve , 52% disapprove

I was expecting him to be a lot less popular, honestly.

No, that's American opinion (And several recent polls have shown him at -20ish).

I'm not sure what Trump's UK approval is, but it's gonna be a LOT lower than -13.

Roughly 300 million more pounds.

Not quite. It's very good for a council of their size - Bristol has twice their expenditure and similar usable reserves, for example - but most councils are sitting on some amount of usable reserves because slowly drip-feeding that stuff out is (along with cutting everything they can) how they're planning to survive in the medium term. There was a big rush to build up reserves in the early years of the ConDem government, which are now being drained away: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-20613183

e: Note Eric Pickles in there whining about how councils shouldn't complain because they're stashing money away, because of course financial prudence in the face of known massive cuts coming in the future is a bad idea.

It depends on the poll, most of the recent ones have him at 35% or so with 60% disapproving.

Trump may be terrible but he's at least a somewhat entertaining tire fire to watch if you don't think too hard about the effects of his policies, May doesn't even have the benefit of being remotely interesting

You forgot about the part where preventing people from actually getting money they're rightfully entitled to is the whole point.

Going back a few pages where people were talking about what May is.

Actual conversation with my teenage daughters.

"You know that time all the Doctor's enemies descended on that planet because they wanted him to say his name and blast apart Gallifrey, but the space church wouldn't let them land so they kept on sending down stuff like wooden Cybermen to sneak past them?

[Clearly I do.]

May is like if they had all got together and made a vulture robot."


I have literally no argument against this theory.
