Theresa May, voters, the awkward lie and the inconvenient truth
Oh dear. It’s all going wrong for Theresa May (again)!
Not only has a real human being managed to sneak into one of her carefully stage-managed performances – with a “She’s lying to you” sign, no less!* – but she really was lying.

Mrs May was trying to convince us all that she has been out talking to real voters. But we know that all her campaign appearances so far have been carefully stage-managed to ensure that she doesn’t have to.
As This Site pointed out yesterday, Mrs May’s actual reaction, were she to be confronted by a genuine, undecided, voter rather than one of the Tory faithful, is more akin to the behaviour of this cat:

*Oh, all right. He was edited in. But Theresa May really was lying.

You only have to look!
Love it. The rest of the hand-picked audience looked as miserable as sin and all seemed to be wishing they were somewhere else. What a farce. How can people actually vote for a party led by this dishonest hypocrite whose political party is just swamped with fraud and corruption?
I think the video is doctored. You can see the ear of the person who was actually there (compared with the Sky Broadcast) on the sleeve of the man behind the placard holder. Funny, but also not funny. This is a good example of fake news. Much though I believe May is lying, this makes me doubt all politics.
You didn’t notice the very clear statement that the guy with the sign had been edited in, then.
