Say there would be no general election before 2020, and she asserted, "I say what I mean" - I wonder what/who forced her hand |  |

Political expediency of the worst kind. Nasty party, nasty woman |  | | |

The Post-Truth politician of the very worst kind
Her advisers clearly fancy their chances and have tried to catch Labour on the hop. Do we really need even more uncertainty given the current climate? |  |

What has changed? It is less than a month since she last said 'no snap general election'. What has changed in the meantime? |  |

The polls have got worse for Corbyn....Can't really get much lower than rock bottom. | |

Uncertainty? I don't think there is any doubt over the result. Just the size of the majority. |  |

Labour have been on the hop every since E.Milliband got in.
Don't see what has changed since the last of her many denials that she would hold a general election before the next one was due in 2020. (Due on the basis of an act she helped to put into law in 2011.)
This is just another round of totally cynical, dishonest political expediency, cf A.Blair, P.Mandelson, D.Cameron. B.Johnson, M.Gove.
Honesty just doesn't matter in politics anymore. |  | | |

I think it could also be a clever move to rid the Tories of the Brexit buffoon Johnson and backstabber Gove e.t.c. If they were your standing for your constituency, would you vote for them?
Easy way to dispose of them via a backdoor as it were and so remove unpopular characters in Europe before the negotiations with the EU start in earnest... |  | | |

The CPS deadline for deciding whether to prosecute the various Tory MPs accused of overspending in the 2015 election is around the same time as the election has been called for. |  | | |

Everything is changing all the time, we've triggered Article 50 since then which is huge. | |

The conservatives are a business club front by P.R. peoplr and spokeswomen. The front people say the media spin, the real control of our country is not them. The Tory machine decided this. |  |

She's a Tory and as we've all seen since 2010 they all lie and cheat to suit themselves.
As with Brexit this election has nothing to do with the country, for them, it's all about the control of the Tory Party . |  | | |

There is a lot of bad news on the horizon which could get much worse before the end of the year e.g.
Wages are now slipping behind inflation
The insistence by May & Hammond that the austerity on the poor is maintained
Knife crime is rsing due to lack of police
Ditto acid attacks
All public servcies in crisis
NHS in crisis
Mental health in crisis
Care for the elderly in crisis
Education a mess and politically driven
Business getting very concerned about a hard Brexit
Big rises in energy costs
Etc. Etc.
By calling the GE now the Right Wing press has the opportunity of papering over the cracks before the parliamentary recess
The real issue with this is how far the right wing of the tories will drive the country and how little will be revealed until it is too late. | | | |

Bollox.
No business club would support the sort of Brexit May is threatening. | | | |

None of the above count according to Tories.
They will make this all about Brexit and nothing else.
With the help of the right wing gutter press the simpletons will fall for it again. | | | |

No doubt the media will make thjis a non tory problem failing to tell us that May had to call this to avoid having to facea voter forced by the right wing. | | | |
