Labour trolls tell Theresa May to ‘burn in hell’ after she quits No10

LEFTIE trolls today ruthlessly mocked Theresa May after her tearful resignation on the steps of No10.

And many senior Labour MPs refused to express any sympathy for Mrs May's plight despite her dignified resignation statement.

Mrs May announced this morning she will step down on June 7, continuing as an interim PM while her successor is chosen - and called for unity, a message which apparently fell on deaf ears.

Even her bitter Brexit rivals praised her resilience and strong sense of public duty despite their disagreements.

But today left-wing trolls flooded Twitter to barrack her instead - with their abusive messages unfiltered by the site's bosses.

One Labour supporter said: "Theresa May says that she loves her country what a pity she doesn't love the poor, disabled, elderly etc who her and her party have targeted lying b***h."

Another Corbynista wrote on Twitter: "The brass neck of this Theresa May f***er claiming to have done everything she hasn’t. Hope she rots in Hell."

An SNP backer added: "Best laugh I've had this morning you crying haha and today can only get better now daft b***h."

A self-declared socialist tweeted: "Shedding a tear for herself on the telly bless. Bet she never shed a tear for the disabled who killed themselves over her party's policy."

Comedy writer Nick Pettigrew compared the PM to a murderer, saying: "For anyone expressing sympathy for a tearful Theresa May, I’d remind you that your average serial killer cries when they’re arrested and are responsible for far fewer deaths."

And anti-Brexit campaigner James Willby crowed: "Ding dong, the witch is gone."

Another Remainer tweeted: "She should go and look at herself in a mirror and give herself a proper b***h slap so she can carry crying for sympathy. F*** off Theresa May."

High-profile Corbyn cheerleaders added to the chorus of derision aimed at the beleaguered PM.

Guardian columnist Dawn Foster said: "I think history will remember Theresa May kindly as one of the most f***ing incompetent prime ministers and arcanely, wilfully cruel home secretaries in history.

"Would you rather sob a few seconds on TV or get deported?"

Far-left author Aaron Bastani added: "Hopefully as years pass she’ll shed tear for right reasons."

Mrs May revealed she will quit as Tory leader on June 7 but stay in No10 until her successor is elected in late July.
