- Опубликовано: 16 май 2017
- It's her name on the battle-bus, on the election leaflets and on the placards that surround every speech that Theresa May makes. For the Tories, the Prime Minister is the prime asset of the party in this highly-personalised campaign. But what is it that drives Theresa May herself? Channel 4 News has been speaking to some of those who know her best, including her former Oxford tutorial partner, who remembers her saying in their first term that she wanted to become Prime Minister.

Whilst I appreciate the attempt at a personal profile, it's a shame it missed out on the bigger details - her seduction by the dark side of the Force, her becoming a Sith Lord, and leading the Empire’s attempt to eradicate the Jedi Order and ascend to ultimate supremacy in the universe.
She comes across awfully, privileged career politician who loathes any socialist polices.
the husband works for Deutsche Bank. They kept that quiet. But then again Jeremy Corbyn is a millionaire.
1 in 14 Brits are millionaires excluding property and luxury goods. Being a millionaire is nothing special these days.
nunchaku101 go back to the 18th century. The 12-year-old pit workers, the 8-year-old cotton mill workers, the 16 hour a day workers, will all be happy to string you up.
I think that's a bit harsh. She's gotten caught up with this Brexit debacle so she hasn't really had the chance to stamp her ideas on public policy. The UK cabinet is split; the parliament is split; the Conservative membership is split. I think her mistake lies in trying to please everyone, but I don't think she's a horrible mean person.
If there's anyone out there voting for her, can you explain why, please? I'm doing an essay on collective sociopathy. Cheers
XI XXY To find the reason is very simple look at the opposition. She is even picking up Labour voters this election is going to be a bloodbath nobody trusts Labour anymore Corbyn and Abbott are the final nail.
She's picking up Labour voters? Are you sure they're not having you on

XI XXY I'm very sure you'll find this out the day after the election I see blue, Lots of blue you will also.
blue is the color, football is the game, blue is the color cos chelsea is our name! PREM CHAMPS 2017! Thats the only blue youl be seein
Well I think she's a very nice lady wat is very sensible with tidy hair and is a bit like thatcher only shitter but that's alright because I like shit.
Some toffs from Oxford telling us how we should live our lives and how the government should operate. Erm, no.
The Tories are in charge of immigration mate. They are the ones letting it all happen, and If that's all you have got it's pretty weak. Do you want the further destruction of the NHS, rising homelessness, and rents, more tax breaks to the Elites, deeper cuts to public services? Much better, in fact?
No thanks, get her out.
You can't do worse than Theresa the Appeaser.
Diane Racist Better than chancellor. Phillip Hammond fluffed his figures yesterday morning just as hard but that doesn't suit the focus your hate sufficiently, does it?
Better than Amber rudd who still denies cannabis has medicinal purposes, who claims the cons are the party of law and order LOL but then the Fed chairman Steve White says policing is "on its knees, in intensive care and fighting for its life". May and her as home secretary bought us this countries highest net migration recorded.
Don't trust it !!!
She is so passionate about what she does. And in addition, she is a better negotiator than the hard Brexit gang.
This woman don't care about the British people all she cares about is her self.
I'd never vote for a debate skipper. I've voted Tory all my life but will vote against them if she won't debate!
We only had debates since 2010, so you used to vote Tory when there weren't even debates. It's not worth not voting Tory over something so silly as TV debates. Corbyn would be a disaster as PM
Why would he be a disaster? Brexit negotiations? Well Labour have Ken Loch (legal legend) as their foreign secretary while BoJo is negotiation on our behalf.
Money? Labour's manifesto fully costed, backed by Bank of England Economists and with lots of clear headway to put extra reserve money in all our pockets, while the Tories have a vague, unbacked, uncosted manifesto that directly attacks the Old and Young as well as anyone struggling to find a job, many economists have said it will contract our economy instead of grow it, it is also very similar to Greece's austerity programmes which have hammered the Greek economy.
Immigration? Labour and the Conservatives actually have similar policies: you're only allowed in if you have a job sorted and waiting for you upon arrival. If you really care about immigration vote UKIP.
Is it strength of the leader? Well as already seen, May wont debate, cannot answer questions with any clarity what so ever and has managed to fall out with her own Chancellor just weeks before an election. This is all while Corbyn is gathering crowds in the tens of thousands and answering every question given to her.
Brexit itself? Corbyn is a euroskeptic and has always had a solid plan on how to leave sensibly, while may is a self proclaimed Bremainer.
IRA? it's simple, Corbyn has denounced the IRA and was called a 'Hero of the time' by Thatcher. Meanwhile the Tories have an EX-IRA head councillor.
I really do appreciate that Corbyn might look weak, but May is far weaker. Think about it, you seem like an intelligent guy, The Tories had a majority in parliament, no one could block them. The only reason they called this election was because they either want to U-turn on Brexit or want to do something so crazy or stupid that they know they will face a small rebellion from their own ranks.
David James "silly" if it's so silly and so important to voting intention then why didn't the almighty Theresa turn up?
She is fucking evil.
I love how they sit Jeremy down and ask him challenging questions and may gets an almost this is your life style video part.
She is a real anti socialist and would happily bring back the feudal system.
Inches her way forward before lunging for whatever it is she wants to seize, sounds like David Attenborough describing a fucking snake.
I just watched the Channel 4 documentary on Corbyn, then straight away watched this one. The contrast is unbelievable. One is a genuine, compassionate and cares about people, the other is a posh toff completely out of touch with 99% of the population
Long periods of silence? That's because she ain't got a clue what to say!
wow, the difference between the corbyn interview and this tory propaganda is a joke. Where are the questions on what she says, the interruptions, holding her to account? you should be ashamed channel 4
Anyone know the name of this journalist?
Quite a ghastly woman, she reminds me of aunt Spiker from the James and giant peach film, only wants to see people working hard but unconcerned about how little they may be earning. I wish working class people from regional Britain were less keen on voting for her as she has virtually nothing to offer them.
This is actually a good report from C4, she doesn't get the easy ride she would on the beebs
XI XXY Lol but this is still Tory propaganda. The whole UK media is Tory run and controlled. #JC4PM
Yeah I know that's why I said 'actually' cos it's not the case usually :P
Dictators don't need to talk.
1:07 while Lady of the debating manor was dressing like a 19th century Victorian aristocrat Jeremy Corbyn was defending the rights of the Black people in South Africa. Wonder who I should vote for....................
yess she will bring good changes...... benificial for britian and other countries.....decreasing terrorism and. antihumanity
if she wore a cloak she realy would look like the emperor out of star wars. corbyn :"IF YOU STRIKE ME DOWN, I SHALL BECOME MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE" . well you never know. even the stupid polls are turning
Who promotes fox hunting? She's beyond my understanding!
3:55 Theresa May took sole credit for Hillsborough Justice.
I wonder how many Tory MPs send their children to private schools or indeed went to private schools themselves. I also wonder how many of them have private health provision. It strikes me that if you don't need something, it is difficult to care about said 'something'.
DECEIVING CROW,.
Isométrica you are wrong . Crows are very intelligent. Theresa robótica May follows orders from the Deep state psychopaths Who Pay her/It. She has about 6 sound bites which she continually repeats ad nauseam.
"Ambitious..but for what?"😂
TheMystery Gamer Fox hunting and privatisation of our NHS
working class please don't shoot yourselves in the foot voting Tories.
Can't wait to get out there to hunt some foxes! Pip-Pip!
There was something I found in her box ? I know it's pink and makes a buzzing noise. ...
THATCHERS BACK
yes and this time its the lunch snatcher
General election as an emergency now please! Girl guides says she's listening to the will of the British people!
She seems quite good at campaigning for herself... I say this, because there was no sign of her during the EU referendum. Could she have been hiding away so she could emerge on the wining side and be the next prime minister?
what the hell,
this lady's whole life has been about u-turns, wiggling and wobbling...
check out her previous view on gays.
biase over the top!!! All about personality than policies. strong n stable my a$$.
Corbyn is definitely the better candidate. I wish I could meet him in real life to congratulate him on his amazing manifesto . God I love you corbyn !!
May will snatch your lunches away.
"What was she saying?" "I don't know, thought you might be able to tell me"! "Looks like she knows though"!
4:10
Just look at them.
Just look at them.
Do your instincts tell you, the same thing that mine tell me? I'm not even going to say what I think, but look at them and listen to your own feelings.
Who?
6:53 pure steel 😤😤😤😤😤
What does she say?
May is the British Hillary Clinton
exactly! and jeremy is the british bernie sanders! i just can't believe it when the uk makes the same mistake as the usa... it's just sooo crazy! i mean how mentally disabled have you been to think may is better than corbyn?
Johnny Depp And what sort of an imbecile would vote the IRA supporting Corbyn over May? Actually not manny.
SILVERCLOUD141 None. Corbyn stopped them from blowing up people with the army. They wouldn't like Corbyn too much.
Your right May is slightly more right wing than Clinton.
Globalisation that thing where corporations have complete control is Marxism now? Jesus Christ what has Alex Jones done to people...
With respect, repeat, repeat,repeat like robots?
With respect, Conservative Mrs. May acting like a girl guide mistriss, repeat, repeat, repeat, rephrase, then nasty about Labour manifesto!
With respect, Theresa May is a girl guide mistress?
"Ambitious but for what ?" Errrmm....Theresa May.
#MakeJuneTheEndOfMay
loathsome individual
With respect,Hillary Clinton and they sound like they're trying to to teach her the basics-highly repetitive.
she also finding man dominated society..... oppositions
Time for this vacuous, empty narcissistic and callous woman to go. She can volunteer to dust and clean out her church and learn about humility and Christian compassion once retired!
Christian Compassion. Is that where you give everything away to people that cannot possibly manage it?
Answer: A Clown

She’s a very odd woman. Not strong nor stable!
Who said only the right wing can be sexist? She's an intelligent and pragmatic woman. She's right, politics isn't a game. I am not conservative but I really admire her. There's some really scummy left wing misogynists and as a left leaning person I hate it.
popping the Champaign while a student? Isn't that free education nice.
Much more viable leader than Corbyn! Good luck to England if Corbyn ever got in 😂
TM for PM.
I will esplain her in one second a total lyer
