- In an exclusive broadcast interview in Downing Street, the prime minister has told the BBC that she will leave the job with a "mixture of pride and disappointment".
Speaking to BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg, Theresa May said that she didn’t "recognise" herself in the criticisms made of her during her time in the job. But she admitted that she had "underestimated" divisions in Parliament.

The camera operator on May must be drunk.
could be hand held..
Peter Harris it’s the BBC not a UA-camr
It was so bad I got dizzy.
Rob Dewey I realise that..

She seems like a very dignified and gracious woman who Did the best she could as Prime Minister.
NOT! just ask Farage.
Regardless of political ideology, I really think that Theresa May has a good, kind heart, and that is the most important thing of all.
She's not a bad person and I do believe she did want to make Brexit happen. She took the job when nobody wanted it and did her best to ensure the public get what they voted for. What went wrong was how she tried to please both sides; that is simply not possible. The deal wasn't what people had in mind when they voted and I don't think she 100% took people's concerns into account.
It's wrong to blame her, though. It's the self serving MPs that for 3 years have been doing their very best to destroy Brexit because they didn't like the result.
If she didn't have Brexit to sort out I do believe she would've made a good PM and would've done a lot more for this country. Despite the dancing, she has been a good representative of the UK and we should wish her well.
Be honest, you'd rather have Theresa running the country than Jeremy Corbyn with his pal Diane Abbot.
Hear Hear
She was the Head of the department that lost a huge amount of files on pedophile politicians and famous folks
So no she's a cold snake and she even looks like a lizard
She hated Brexit. Thank you and get lost
Hunter owen1 Don’t agree
Best dancer in UK! period.
....dancing Queen.....
id like to see her and putin dancing the lambada maybe
Bill Riz Best robot like dancer 🕺 in UK 🇬🇧
She was sh*t.
She made David Brent not look awkward. Lol
She seems kind of reasonable when you watch this
Because there is nothing at stake.
Except when in charge
She tried to hijack the will of the people by pretending she was fighting for.it..cunning conniving woman
Thanks for everything. Right prime minister, wrong time. No one would have been popular. You can’t win with either side.
Nice try Theresa!!!
liamgetg I agree with you!
liamgetg absolutely. Thanks Mrs May for wasting billions to keep yourself in power.
She's a most admirable and
sincere lady
Well done for saying that, and here the BBC is complimenting her but really they've been constantly trying to destroy her politically with unfavourable coverage.
sincere! I'd say incompetent.
Good riddance.
Mrs. May! You are a very wise woman with an amazing personality! This interview has changed my mind about you! Thank you for your dedication and hard-work!
Ha ha
I love that in her final interview - she closes with the words 'national interest' - only appropriate considering those two words were all she ever really said.
I don't vote Conservative but I have always liked Theresa May. I think she's a nice person.
@Otto KrackinfahrtI think she's better than what we have now, that's all. Have a nice day. Best wishes to you.
I think someone who showed courage to lead the Country at the crucial time of referendum and now almost stabilised (with or without brexit deal in the parliament) the politics (from outside world view) to take its own rightful decision, she endured the most crucial non-war time of any prime minister with full conviction and nationality spirit. With this, I shall congratulate her for an endearing service and wish her for future discourse. - Right and Ethical Politics - From India. Thank you
It's so nice to see a bit more of Theresa's personality. A lot of the time, it felt like she had put a massive wall up and gave out the absolute bare minimum of information about Brexit and, indeed, herself. Her own thoughts and opinions were rarely made clear, and I think this would have helped her a lot if she was more transparent.
However, I understand why she was like that. I don't think that I would have been able to cope, personally, with the sheer amount of pressure that she was under, without putting up those walls to protect myself.
Brexit is and Brexit was a poison chalice. Anyone who touches it is doomed to ruin. There are vast amounts of people who want to stay in the EU, and there are equally vast amounts of people who want to leave. Everyone has different reasons for their opinion on this. Consequently, there are infinite amount of opinions on how we should leave and on what terms, and, in the case of remaining, what remaining should look like.
Trying to bring together an entire, truly divided, nation, under these circumstances, is an impossible task.
Whether you like her or loathe her as a politician, I have always felt sympathy for her as a human being. There have been many times where I have seen her in parliament, or on the news, and have thought that she was either about to cry her eyes out or have a break down. The amount of comments that she has received that are personal in nature and, really, akin to bullying is amazing. Even in parliament itself, her place of work, she received so much abuse.
Of course, she didn't deliver on Brexit, she's influenced decisions on the welfare 'reforms' that have been negatively received, and her premiership could be described as an utter disaster.
But please, people, remember that she is a human being, and I doubt that any one of us could have performed better. To have gone through one of the most distressing and horrid experiences and to have, by sheer luck, survived it until the end is a success, to her merit.
Let's just hope that we have a general election, so that our voice can be heard and this mess can get a bit closer to a resolution. The two muppets that we're destined to be left with are definitely not suitable for the job.
Although this issue has been one of obsession and division, let us try to remember that life is very short, and we should all do our best, in our individual ways, to be joyful and positive towards one another. Brexit hasn't only divided the nation, but it's broken friendships and caused rifts in families. Is this what we want? Brexit is out of our hands now and what will be will be, so let us all try to make an effort to mend and nurture relationships that have been damaged throughout this ordeal.
Good luck, everyone!
The sound of reason
Brilliant exit interview Ms May. You've been brilliant and so resilient - now get some well needed rest. The 2nd British Female Prime Minister is a wonderful achievement and one to be proud of. It's a shame that MPs wouldn't allow you to deliver on Brexit and it's been frustrating on so many levels. Thank you for your service!
i think you are all on drugs she was a shit priminister
I love you, Theresa May.
All the best of the best.
JACK CHEUNG She really is a hero.
she is the worst
I loved her too. She didn't deserve the criticism she got.
Even when she has nothing left to lose and no reason to do it, she will not answer awkward questions.
I hope the future will have English subtitles for all BBC programs :)
We, the British people, love you Theresa. We love you so much.
Since when did you speak for the entirety of the British People?... I don't remember getting an email.
I thought I still had a voice of my own?!?!? Mrs May has the facial grimace of someone who doesn't know how she got here, but by God she doesn't want to be here now. She has the demeanor of someone who knows she is in the wrong job.. Of a weak infant school headmistress who can't maintain discipline during assembly. . I'm sure she is a nice lady though, on a one to one level.
She is really a good person, I respect her and I'm sad to see who will be the next prime minister...
Today World Cup England win karay ga please England government invite me q k I Am very very prayer for England win L wish I am coming in England please but I am very very poor
After 1 billion interviews, the interview is still not over.
Don't pay the TV tax.
Strange that she never mentioned Grenfell!?
😂😂😂 That's cos she fucked it up being the cold crypt keeper that she is
Who cares?!
Why? She didn’t start it.
it's nothing to do with her...
JRB really? It was her government who’s negligence allowed it to happen despite many pleas from residents about fire issues.
The public didn't vote for a deal, THEY VOTED TO LEAVE. We tried for a deal in 2014, it didn't work.
U r right 100%
But may is big player she she love to play with uk public and for that result she is just mp now
Shame may
She was asked to list her achievements. This never made the edit as she couldn't stop laughing for thinking too hard
Don't be unfair.....She had a massive achievement, her resignation !
She won't be resigning now,given England won the cricket world cup and she was there. 🤪
Robbie Craughwell wheat field...
@Robbie Craughwell with a dildo up her farter.
God she sounds like a different person. So much more natural and fluent in expressing her thoughts. A good conversationalist, even. Not much trace of the Maybot. I think her personality was just not right for the role. She’s not a salesperson.
She is extremely honest , well educated and able to converse ---- A real politician.
You will have to get used to bumbling Boris if there are no surprises up ahead. eh,eh,eh....
Best of luck in future, Theresa! You did the best you could, with the cards that you were dealt, hold your head high!
Don't be all sympathetic! she is a bloody disgrace! the poor rich woman! never knew a hard day in her life.
think of the GREAT leaders of the past then look at that wet lettuce.
A bit of sick just came up in my mouth.
@@anthonydempsey5686 "Never knew a hard day"???? Surely you can't be serious?! You mean, she's had it easy then?!
@@jasondevon481 Aww, bless...
@@anthonydempsey5686 facts shed a old bag
Actually, in her last breath as leader, she did do something right which made me very glad. In the present media wake toward the awful treatment against men, she mentions how her husband supports her. Thank you Lady for mentioning your partner, your companion. You just don't hear it anymore. I hope to hear and see people appreciating each other better, especially between men and, women.
When you'd rather have theresa may than any of the conservative leader candidates
Great Interview. I don't like to hear the Break Up described as a Divorce, it was never a Marriage but Rather and "Arranged Marriage" that we have chosen not to be forced into.. Best wishes to Theresa, she is a strong and intelligent Prime Minister, whether we agree with her or not.
"Laura kuensburg your sychophantic interview is disturbing but then again your reporting on the Conservative's and Theresa May in particular was so biased it was sickening a friend saying good bye to an old friend and saying don't worry Theresa i will always support your party and your successor."
disillusioned to the end!
mjt1658 And you are an ARSE.
@@stephenroche5107 calm down sunny
Archie 010 Don't get involved sonny you silly arse.
Laura is the reason I'm here.
Not a fan of TM but she had an extremely difficult job that no-one in the current parliament would be able to complete, especially with so many of those whose only achievement has been constant bullying and criticism.
I'm not a conservative, however I really liked May. She was a very intelligent and beautiful prime minister. Brexit is what really made her tenure as PM short-lived. The UK, in my view, was better for having had May in office.
She said she would have the deal done, it’s not.
She said she’d be out by June. It’s now mid July.
And Obongo said he'd close Guantanamo. Politicians.
Yes she's stayed true to lying right until the end.
@@andyf7973 hahah best comment
the common pattern with theresa may is every single thing she does is a slow long boring process that is like watching paint dry.
Horrible Tory
Deception is not moving forward. It's being dragged backwards by sneaks. Still trying to make her look as if it's not her fault so they can wheel. Her out again later.
3 wasted years useless at the Home office useless as PM, what a joke.
@Me and me Ano one is going to disagree troll
Wonderful Mrs Theresa May hard working lady. I will miss her has our PM.
She was the most ineffective, stubborn and spineless Pm we have ever had. Good riddance.
Thanks for your Reply, Maybe to you. She did work hard to get us out of EU. The next new PM is in the same boat too!
@@rajeshparmar8674
And you have the vote?
You were slow and ineffective in your previous post. Just a hanger on to try to stay in the job. Good riddance.
Leave means leave, Brexit means Brexit, No deal is better than bad deal....those saying by T May will stick in people's mind for a long time, She failed in all negotiation and betrayed the voters. Good buy T May.
Yeah, everyone says that "leave means leave." But I don't think any of the populist bigots hijacking the Tory party have the slightest idea what "leave" really means. I'm looking forward to the Boris taking over. Brace yourselves, UK, you might be at war with Argentina by Christmas.
Leave to the European Parliament to the convention to Britain!
How difficult it's to bring a change.
Now there’s a thing upon suffering beyond suffering the poor will rise again and it shall be a blessing to a sick nation?
Some may not like her but I myself felt she was a good woman who wanted to do her best for our country
One just always gets the sense that when she's asked a question, she goes into her mental toolbox of acceptable answers. She oozes vulnerability, but bad vulnerability. It's good to be honest and introspective and show that to people. But she seems to be trying to hide it.
She tried bless her
To be honest, she stands up pretty well here. I wont miss her but I don't begrudge her efforts.
It was your Treaty they didn't want to vote for, NOT A deal...A Treaty that would have tied UK in without a voice...you failed Mrs May.
To go though your whole life without doing anything good or leaving any type of legacy must be horrid to her. at leased her kids will not be embarrassed by what she did not do.( no children) She will be easily forgotten.
Nobody would have been doing better then her in that sudden circumstance. She's done her best I suppose.
Philip Lim no because she hasn’t done anything... at all... literally tried to be popular and ducked over the country
Philip Lim we needed a strong leader to deliver Brexit
Thanks for your opinion @Rupert Tancred. But as the vote shown in 2015, half of brits don't want to be out of the EU. And still there are many different views of the Brexit's effects. As a politician and leader of the country, she didn't have to be a populist. I believe even none of people who voted for out want to leave the EU radically.
She did her best alright. Her best to keep us half in and tied up with more bureaucratic rules and regulations for ever more. She is a traitor to democracy...
"A country run for everyone not just the few". Yeah how's that working out for us 99%?
right women, wrong time! She inherited a mess and wasn't given the chance to fix it...
Absolutely agree
You're the weakest link...………….GOOD BYE!!!
Daa naa naa naa da nal
I don't understand why people are so annoyed about the frendliness of this interview. There is plenty of footage of her being pilloried. I want to see how she reacts in a NORMAL interview, the sort that bascially every non politician gets.
On a bleak dark night, with a full moon stabbing through thick rain heavy clouds.
A sinister creepy shadow claws its way to an old creaking door.
Suddenly! A terrifying shreik fills the night.
Oh.... it's you Mam, welcome home.
Then the policeman closes the door of 10 downing street.
All the best Ma'am.
She seems like a lovely lady. Hope you’ll get good PM
currently not a possibility
Wow this comment section is surprisingly civil that’s uplifting.
Hello,
Congratulation. That's a great patriotic, smart and honorable act.
Thank you. Good Receipt. Check Al Green.
I think she is a decent human being.
Theresa May is standing down, but she is a strong woman. Over the coming months and years, she will be seen as right for what she was attempting to do for the people of this country. To deliver Brexit fully and with an excellent deal!
No she won't. she will be remembered for allegedly losing the files on the high profile paedophiles and not delivering the will of the people. A Traitor.
She never did a thing for the men/women of this country. Nor did she do anything for the Country itself. A heinous woman who covered up the murders and systematic abuse of children by members of Parliament. A criminal committing genocide against the whole UK population with forced cancer. You were told that by 2040 EVERYONE will get cancer. Yet knowing this, she still signed an extradition order for Lynne Thyer to spend 25 years in a French jail. Her crime? For finding a cancer cure along with David Noakes that has an 87% success rate called GcMAF. A fine woman indeed.
Under-rated PM.
- and that's from a Labour / Greenie.
As an outside observer of British politics, I was madly excited about her premiership. Like some people say, she was prime minister at the wrong time. In a way, a Brexiteer should have been a PM instead of her or another Remainer.
A lovely lady and PM betrayed by her own party - Thank you for all you tried to do Mrs May, enjoy the rest of your life
Very good interview!
Just drop the keys through the letterbox when you go.
lol
I swear, I love Theresa May more than my country. I hope we will make change we will give Uk all judgements and Prime Minister of my country and the president of my country
Our country betrayed us in 2016
Locketts and Lemsip sales increased in her 3 years
Who is holding the camera at Mrs May ?!?!? Shaking it Omg hurting my eyes 😱
Don't be sorry for her, she will get a good job at the European Union for all her good work.
I'm not from the UK, so I understand my opinions are not based on a personal connection: citizen to leader. I've been following UK politics for years now, as I am a big political nerd and have a major interest in global affairs. Anyway, I don't hate Theresa May. To think of her as Cameron's successor if UK had voted to remain, how would we judge her record? She's a Tory, first of all. She's not far-right, but she is right-wing. And her record in government reflects Tory values--to an extent. She also inherited Cameron's austerity legacy. But because of Brexit, everything that has happened: Grenfell, Terrorist Attacks, Public Services Funding, Poverty, Rough Sleeping, et al, all comes under the Brexit umbrella. She's a strange person, honestly. When she's in the House of Commons she's in her element, but among people she seems not sure of herself. And no, let's stop with the fact that she's a robot or a puppet of the NWO or any other conspiracy stuff. I'm glad this interview is personal rather than political. We get to see her for her. That's a healthy thing for the people to see their leader as him/herself. She is awkward. She doesn't cold or reserved, just awkward. It is cringe at first but after 3 yrs you're used to it. When she was an MP/Home Sec and did interviews, I didn't sense the same awkwardness. I judge her domestic record in gov't as the Conservative she is. I judge her record on Brexit on three fronts: 1. Remainer 2. The State of the Conservative Party 3. The Poisoned Chalice that is Brexit. Regarding 1, she voted to Remain, why she won the contest in 2016 is beyond me. But perhaps a softer Brexit rather than hard seemed like the best way to achieve consensus in the HoC. But let's be honest, no matter what deal she and the EU would've produced, the HoC would've said no. The Irish Backstop problem lost the DUP support, which lost a government majority. She wanted to first please her party, specifically DUP and ERG/Far-right, but that failed, and also meant a Brexit that the EU wasn't willing to give, then cross-party talks failed because Labour only wanted her to fail to trigger GE and make Conservatives look bad. Regarding 2, the Tories woke up to a Leave vote as a broken party, nothing Theresa May could've done was going to change that. She could have had one vision, but her cabinet and party all had their own personal ones and failed the country because of it. 3, I agree with a lot of what people are saying: Brexit is poisonous. Cameron, May, Hunt, Johnson, Corbyn, anybody, they couldn't have done or could not do differently because in the end it's the EU that ultimately decides and the EU are done with the UK (more like fed up)--except they still want Scotland and NI in or to reverse brexit altogether. She was a bad PM, in that if you're not a conservative. She was also a weak leader. But her intentions were good, for that I respect her. I certainly prefer her to Johnson and I don't see Hunt doing any better than her, same Tory, different person.
Whether you like Jellyfish May or not, you have to admit, speaking from a remainers position, she did an outstanding job of trying to keep us in the corrupt, undemocratic, German, sorry, slip of the tongue, European Union. If only she had been on my side, I voted to leave the European Union, I never voted for a deal nor did I want to stay in the customs union, in fact, I wanted to cut ties altogether. That is what I understood leaving meant, not some half-baked deal.
Mind you Dodgy David Cameron left the mess so it's his fault for being a useless man. He left cos he new he dug a hole. Then Theresa may had to sort it out.
This entire interview is going to be such a surreal source of evidence for historians
At the time I didn't like her much. Now I believe she was the best Tory prime minister since 2010.
Dancing with the robot.
@Daniel Clark Clark Her genitals have rotted.
Here comes the dancing Queen....one of the most unpopular PM ever..
goharik jones maybe he’s putting her robot moves to the test
THE MOST
@Coleen West Go and live in a Muslim country you brain washed letter box.
The very best deal was the first one that Theresa May supported. Remember, she was a supporter of remain long before she supported leave. Switching positions is dishonest unless you can say why. Would she suddenly support Labour if the Labour Party wins an election? Just because one third of her parliamentary party and UKIP persuaded 51 point something of the voters in the referendum to vote for something that was never realistic is not a good reason for changing one's mind.
That camera work is pretty shaky...
One of the best we had ❤️
Theresa's comment on trump's attitude towards her is outstanding indeed. I quote ' America relationship with the UK is not about 2 persons' but more about the history of two countries where they stood shoulder to shoulder. She is so professional in her speech and tactful in her answers. Hats off Theresa. Your background is british and trump's background is his ego
30 years later
She was pretty much bullied out of the job by the ERG.
Is Liz Truss's picture on the staircase?
God I hope not
Thank you Kuenssberg, well done. Prime Minister May has been very next in many answers to every one... Her Personal way will hold many compliments!...
What ???
No deal is better than a bad deal and May's deal would have left us under EU control which is not Brexit
No Darren
Britain's fucked. And more racist slimeballs are sticking their heads up out of the gutters. We need to sort the racists out and get rid of the tories
On a side note this interview made me really want to go on a tour of 10 Downing St 😉 Sadly they don't exist for us mere plebs
Good Riddance. Best of luck with the next one!
Merkel must be behind that camera pointing at May 🤦🏻♂️
I want a prime minister.That doesn't give a crap about 'Been on call'
Why is the camera so unstable?
Pished
Dont see how a new PM will solve the problems. We need a general Election
Yes, at last someone speaking a bit of sense Scott.
Hopefully a General election where 50% of the UK population submits a legitimate vote of no confidence. That is the only way to disband the money hungry parasites. The men/women of this country can then choose a Government who put their interests first. No Government = no taxes. Income tax, car tax, council tax and every other unlawful stealth tax.
Great,more cheating labour postal voters
@@johnwilson9979 Taxes aren't illegal. You might want to live in some kind of Mad Max world. I want an NHS, and schooling, and potholes repaired - that requires tax.
@@jeandada3654 Stealth taxes are. By design their purpose is to HARVEST as much money from the public as possible. When you do your tax returns on line, you are thanked at the end for your contribution. The definition of Contribution is donation. You continually pay these stealth taxes through a lack of knowledge of English Grammar. The fraud is in the Grammar. As for the NHS, it is in decline by default. Very soon you will be paying for doctors appointments and any hospital visits. Schooling is BS. There is very little truth, if any, taught in schools. They are a Government tool. Local councils have no interest in spending money on potholes, or anything else. Their sole interest is Council Tax revenue. Which again is an unlawful stealth tax. Educate yourself before making stupid comments reminiscent of an obedient slave.
Women has strange facial expressions when talking. Her downfall was going into the Brexit negotiations with the mindset that Europe had the negotiating advantage. By taking a no deal off the table she immediately was bargaining from a position of weakness. Should have been strong and laid out to Junker and Co, a list of items that Britain would not accept. The deal she attempted to ram through parliament several times kept Britain metaphorically in the EU. With control of issues with the unelected Bureacrats in Brussels. Her response " my deal was a good deal "
No it was not, it was neither Brexit, or a good deal.
She never wanted Brexit, thats why she shoved the no deal off the table.
Yes right
Well, I've turned over a new leaf, I am now going to make a concerted effort at being 'normal' ... Can someone pass me the lipstick please?
If Parliament wanted BREXIT we would be OUT before NOW.
But you may signed us into the bk stop and custom union. Single market. But with no voice. You fool. They offers us free trade but you may said no. You betrayed us. In favour of remain. The trust as gone. Its gone don't talk or report we are not Listening we are done may
She had to try and get a deal for those who wanted to leave .The Brexiteers ..She herself was pro EU @@sheilabutterworth1418
To me her resilience is inspiring... a role model to me whether she delivered brexit or not.
You are a pathetic human being
Nice one.💌
