She knows she's lying, right?

Both the Tories and Labor took a pasting in the local elections while the Lib Dems and Greens gained many seats.

The final English councils have declared their results and the results are worse for the Conservatives than even the most pessimistic predictions. 

The party lost 1,351 seats; a net loss of 1,269.

But Labour did not profit hugely from their rivals’ disastrous day, losing 307 of their own seats; a net loss of 63. 

The Lib Dems, the Greens and independent candidates were the big winners, seeing net gains of 676, 185 and 242 seats, respectively.

Polls continue to show majorities for staying in the EU.

Hell, May opposed it before the referendum.

All which May reportedly chose to spin thus.

"Yes, we had challenging results, but Labour were predicting that they were going to gain seats. In fact, they made net losses of seats.

"But I think a message has been given to both main parties from the public – I think people are saying to us: ‘We’re sending a strong message, just get on and sort Brexit out and do it’.

"I welcome the fact that Jeremy Corbyn has said today that he sees the time is now to get a deal and to deliver on Brexit – it’s what I’ve been saying for some time. 

"It’s what we want to do, it’s what we’ve been working for, so now we must get on and do that."

Corbyn, the pro-Brexit leader of a mostly anti-Brexit party, echos her lie.

The parties of two leaders trying to do a Brexit both lose heavily to parties opposing Brexit, so the two leaders see this as a very clear message to do Brexit?

God, what ghastly liars.

Asked about the results, in which the Conservatives suffered much bigger losses, Corbyn told ITV: “I think it means there’s a huge impetus on every MP, and they’ve all got that message, whether they themselves are leave or remain – or the people across the country – that an arrangement has to be made, a deal has to be done, parliament has to resolve this issue. I think that is very, very clear.”
