The DT who had nothing but praise for weeks... anything to get their cronies in.... really have the knives out this morning, from editorials, letters to the editor and even feature writers.
She is living on borrowed time. I wonder if any bookmakers are taking bets.

The more I think about the result the better it gets, because May is fatally weakened which means that she will be unable to carry out anything much more than the non controversial work in parliament. The electorate have given her a message she can't ignore, unless she wants the Tories to lose the next election big time.

But best of all they are left with the complete car crash that is Brexit over which nothing good can come. Their appalling mess - well here is the bucket and floor cloth - time to get on your knees and clear it up.

The young did good.

Carol Ann Duffy - gives her thoughts on why May was so humiliated

Campaign

In which her body was a question-mark
querying her lies: her mouth a
ballot-box that bit the hand that
fed. Her eyes? They swivelled
for a jackpot win. Her heart was
a stolen purse;
her rhetoric an empty vicarage,
the windows smashed.
Then her feet grew sharp
and stilettos, awkward.
Then she had balls to believe it.
When she awoke,
her nose was bloody, difficult.
The furious young
ran towards her through the fields of wheat.

The furious young indeed!!
