General election: May falters during challenge over record on public services

[ucrdem]

35. She makes a strong start and backs Brexit bravely

but she starts to fall apart when the questions get down to brass tacks, like why she called the election in the first place after saying she wouldn't. Where she really goes off the rails is when the audience starts asking why she backs Brexit now after opposing it before the referendum. The BBC host help out by drilling down but they know a little too much LOL. Here's the whole shootin' match:

The host says at the start that the audience is 1/3 conservative, 1/3 labour, and 1/3 other or undecided. The questions are pre-screened but the follow-ups aren't. Corbyn faced the same bunch afterward.

p.s. apparently May has so far avoided debating Corbyn directly and that has become another point in his favor.
