Re: British Election Update (none / 1)

Amber Rudd is actually standing in for Theresa May two days after Rudd's father died.

The Sun has tried to play the sympathy card to excuse Rudd's woeful performance, but the more people learn about the background story the angrier they get.

This has exploded all over FB and Twitter. Even hardcore Tory voters are appalled.

May has become That Shitty Heartless Boss Who Drops You In It. I don't think she can recover from this.
