Well that's a surprise isn't it, Tories lying again...the numpties will still vote for them though
Just before she assumed the role of prime minister she said there would be no early election under her leadership. On 30 June, in the speech that launched her bid, she explicitly ruled it out.
Then in her first major interview after taking office, she told the Andrew Marr Show last September that the UK needed a period of stability after the shock Brexit vote.
She said: “I’m not going to be calling a snap election. I’ve been very clear that I think we need that period of time, that stability, to be able to deal with the issues that the country is facing and have that election in 2020.”
In her Christmas message in 2016, May also strongly hinted that an early election was not on the agenda by calling for unity.
She said: “Of course, the referendum laid bare some further divisions in our country – between those who are prospering, and those who are not … those for whom our country works well, and those for whom it does not.
As recently as last month Downing Street said that an early election was “not going to happen”.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

No need for citizenship as the UK, or what's left of it will end up a "defacto" member of the EU.
Think an EU "rump state", turned into a nostalgic theme park demonstrating what the UK (or whatever it will be called) was.

I'm just surprised that TM the PM is waiting until June
If she'd called it next month, everyone would have had to give her a clear pyschological advantage by calling it "the May election"Comment
