I am someone who was working primarily with charities and the NHS. Was being the word, this government may have made the country money but it was by starving the people, the charities I worked with had funding cut severely by the government and the NHS is so heavily understaffed and they treat the remaining staff like dirt so they leave. Even after losing a job to government cuts and leaving the NHS job for the awful treatment, I went into engineer work. This company is now closing because we are a small business who primarily worked with a German company but they have now cut contracts because they obviously don't feel Britain's industry is reliable. This is not including the fact I was in need of the mental health services and I was told I would have to wait 18 weeks to be referred to an adhd clinic at the same time as not being able to find proper help for other me tal health issues. This tory government spat me out and stomped on me in my time of need and has done repeatedly, I lost total faith in them and whoever is next can't be any better.

I have worked with people in financial difficulty, then worked for a company also with ties with Germany that had to make redundancies as a result of how brexit is being handled. I've also been a carer for a less supported mother and my wife was crapped on by the education system the government had instated (specifically as a new teacher in an academy opened by Cameron) So I can feel a lot of sympathy for your situation I hope that you are now getting the support you need

Economic liberalism in action. As someone who lived lived under a conservative government for 12 long years I can tell you it's the same in Germany. Social services were cut to death and the unemployment statistics are low because the cattle is being bullied into low-paying fixed-term jobs by the responsible public authority, but at least "the economy" is doing well, regardless of how the actual citizens are doing. And the social democrats were absolutely useless during that. There's a reason the greens are getting votes (literally) left and right.

Otherwise she has failed utterly to address the Brexit issue in anything like a sensible manner essentially dooming the country to years of arguments on the issue and attempted to claim the achievements of her forebares as her own.

James Lewis the odds were against both in and out of parliament but her downfall was all of her own making. When she called a snap election she foolishly tried to implement seriously unpopular policies and she was pretty much doomed from that point on because it became too obvious that she was a fool. And once the house have noticed that they are less likely to conform with a leader that doesn’t have the intelligence to use foresight. The next leader should be a heavyweight brexiteer without a doubt. Dominic raab or boris johnson

She had the hardest job to try unite a country and government split not only by parties but by Brexit and so for that she has my respect. Brexit itself has many negative impact but personally I don't think we should plaster those on may as her fault, we the people voted for it and she was trying to execute the way she thought we wanted which was impossible. I don't deny she has made mistakes but I think her commitment is admirable and she has my respect.

"Unemployment is at a record low" is something i find incredibly hard to believe when the gov has been proven to manipulate these in many ways. Realistically it is registered unemployment not pushed onto mandatory vocational training is at a record low. I'm curious what the unemployment rate would be if it included those who recieve financial aid to top up their earnings to a liveable rate

Clearly, she didn't achieve anything except putting the Welsh independence movement into the mainstream, albeit still small and creating a catalyst for the creation of the Brexit Party. Far from protecting her beloved union, she and her fellow party cronies have probably actually damaged it. However, I will say this for her. I do believe that she did put 100% effort into what she was doing and whilst it was clear that her abilities were not suited to tackling the issue at hand and that effort was misplaced, I don't think anyone can accuse of her of being lazy. That doesn't mean that I supported her, do support her or ever will, but her tenacity and strength I do respect. No matter how experienced you are or how senior in the government you are, she is, like us human, and it must have been very hard at times to continue forward after the press/media, politicians and the general public had voiced some very strong opinions on her and torn her to bits. Sometimes bordering on the vicious. Even though, at times she clearly brought it on herself. Nevertheless, the fact remains that the time since the 2016 referendum has ultimately been wasted and it is only right and proper that she takes responsibility and steps aside as she has done. Very soon, there will be a new Prime Minister in 10 Downing street although I strongly suspect, the only thing that will be achieved is that the country will have swapped problems. Nothing more and nothing less. The upcoming months are likely to be pretty much as the past few months and we will either crash out of the EU at the end of October or Parliament will cancel BREXIT. What will ensue in the latter scenario is anyone's guess, but I doubt it will be pretty.

The government can give itself credit for creating more jobs and a workforce of people who are chronically sick without a decent health service because of NHS cuts and privatisation, who are stressed out because of no access to public services which have either been privatised or funded by consumers, who are underpaid or on zero contracts (so that companies can make profit for their shareholders) and up to their eyeballs in debt (average UK household debt is 147%) and who are *so utterly frustrated* that they are willing to *listen to people like Farage and co* . So May and her government have achieved quite a lot. None of it of any good to most people, unless of course, you're rich. And the people don't even realise any of this perpetual misery because all the pent up frustration is focused on a meaningless Tory bitch fight over Brexit and "fighting" so called immigration while the *real* problems are blissfully ignored. When is the nightmare going to end?

You've confused the deficit with our debt. The deficit is the difference between government spending and revenue, which is what May talked about in her speech and is genuinely nearly eliminated. The nation is the sum of previous deficits and is the amount we owe as a country. The two are fundamentally different things and you shouldn't be confusing them.

Claiming unemployment is at its lowest is a fallacy, 0-hour contracts = you are employed, even if you go several months only working 4 hours a week, Volunteering = employment, the statistics around unemployment is heavily skewed. Go back to 44 years ago, employment meant working 16+ hours a week and not needing government top up. To say we are at an all-time low is extremely deceptive

Again an excellent explanation that allows us to see the entirety of her term and the circumstances of her being PM, a job no one else sought because of the enormous difficulty at achieving concensus after Cameron's decision to seek a referendum, the worst mistake of any PM since Chamberlain. Having been in parliament for 20 years what possessed her to seek the position with no good outcome likely. Was the outcome made easier by the fact she is a woman whereas a man might have been better able to maintain party discipline. Might a member like Hacker in 'Yes Minister' comedy which was so entertaining to Americans had an easier time of it, or if even Hacker would have declined to seek the position.

In term of Brexit? her best achievements are : (1) unravel what is the real desire of the house of commons: not wanting Brexit, that MPs in Westminster do not give a damn about what their constituents want; (2) show that two-party system is a failure because the party members are only care about the party, not the country. In the end, MPs just want her to kick her out, no body really cares about what to do next with the Brexit nor how to deal with the EU.
