15 Times The Internet Perfectly Summed Up Theresa May And The Tories

The good, the bad and the funny.

It’s been a mixed bag for the Tories over the last few months - the EU referendum, which should have been a nail in the coffin of the government, saw the party come across as a well-oiled machine compared to Labour.

It wasn’t all plain sailing though, a change in PM, the junior doctor strike and Andrea Leadsom all gave ample opportunity for scathing criticism and joyous ridicule.

Here’s some of the best...

The Good.

Growing support in Scotland.

The more Scots see of @theresa_may as PM, the more they rate her. Now above FM in net satisfaction rating.@IpsosMORI pic.twitter.com/xL2sF28RwL

The Bad.

That PMQs blunder.

The Twitter account Theresa May quoted at PMQs is a racist/sexist paradise. Will the press respond... pic.twitter.com/PE8TMMlcGg

The Funny.

The Good.

Coming off pretty well against Jeremy Corbyn in a number of surveys.

The Bad.

Getting thrashed by Jeremy Corbyn at PMQs.

Watching #PMQs from early on and I found myself agreeing with @jeremycorbyn more than @theresa_may and I'm a Tory. Strange things do happen.

Oof. Theresa May seriously needs to drop the shoehorning in of pre-prepared digs and 'gags'. Hammier than this #PMQs pic.twitter.com/UQi15Rvsj0

... and defending Christmas, bizarrely.

thank god theresa may has said she'll keep christmas. here was me worrying we were under attack from cromwell and the roundheads

— Victoria (@vicroskams) September 14, 2016

I would genuinely GENUINELY rather hear Theresa May's views on the current Bake Off drama than acknowledging people's Christmas paranoia.

The Funny.

What the hell is going on here? This looks like a character selection screen in a shite version of Mortal Combat. pic.twitter.com/Ru7WfxBwlZ

The Good.

They’re organised. Especially when compared to Labour’s recent performances.

Just watching all the Tory MPs who supported Leadsom fall into line behind May almost instantly. The Tory machine really does like winning.

The Bad.

Everything to do with Andrea Leadsom.

The Funny.

The Good.

Even Labour supporters are more satisfied with May than Corbyn.

This is unprecdented. LAB voters in latest @IpsosMORI poll give Theresa May much better ratings than Corbyn pic.twitter.com/GQ1busfaJD

The Bad.

Tory-based graffiti.

Sums it all up #Tories #Conservatives #Povertyfascists #Scum

The Good.

This...

Politics aside - I hope girls everywhere look at this photograph and believe nothing should be off limits for them. pic.twitter.com/QGZI3Cgw8d

— Nicola Sturgeon (@NicolaSturgeon) July 15, 2016

The Bad.

David Cameron’s legacy.

Cameron thought to have resigned because he couldn't bear to watch Theresa May dismantle his legacy of fudge and failure.

The Funny.

The Tories' "NHS is safe in our hands" as performed by a forklift truck (the Tories) and a factory (the NHS). pic.twitter.com/nS18u9c2NX

— David Schneider (@davidschneider) September 11, 2016

As boundary changes threaten Corbyn’s seat, Tories deny trying to rig election - saying if that were the case they'd keep him in.

And lest we forget...

OK. David Cameron was a dick. But never forget Theresa May re-appointed this man, who is destroying our NHS pic.twitter.com/BQPw6mm5od
