Why?

Theresa May isn’t even respected in her own cabinet

Mrs May, You earn respect. Didn't your parents even teach you that? 🤔 FinalSay

Respect is always earned, never expected theresa_may

EU demands no respect, Brussels is a Shithole

You haven’t given much to us - you’re useless

She could maybe start by showing some respect for Scotland, NI and Wales.

What kind of respect?like Tories respect?saying they would change the agreement after the agreement being accepted?

After a 2 Year circus of British entitlement and blaming them for all our problem? Good luck with that Theresa.

Actually the UK expects respect. Unlikely from the corrupt cabal that is the EU!

Respect is always a co-creation ....

She doesn't get respect from most in the UK, how could she expect it from a group of countries she keeps thumbing her nose at? Delusional basket cases, the whole wretched government.

I think Theresa May has been put in an awful position because of the gamble taken by David Cameron. I am sure Brexit is taking a huge personal toll on her. Brexit makes no sense and it seems like the UK 🇬🇧 is playing Russian Roulette.

You don't have it in the UK.

theresa_may you don't deserve respect. You as with most if not all Tories work on double standards. The citizens of the UK deserve respect and that includes EU citizens. How much respect has government policy shown the disabled, Windrush , EU citizens and other vulnerable ppl?

you’re being treated with the contempt you richly deserve.

"Go whistle for it" Boris the Liar

Embarrassment. Shambles. BrexitShambles endthechaos

even a year ago, nobody in Europe or the UK could imagine such a degree of utter incompetence from a UK Government. Chequers is no plan, it's a chimera to hide the ugly truth that Norway is looming. When will May come back to reality?

Really? She can’t even get it from members of her own party

Why does the PM expect respect, when she couldn't garner enough votes from the UK electorate to give her a proper mandate? I have absolutely no respect for her at all & I doubt very much if she has any respect for those who will suffer most from her incompetence.

Oh go eff yourself backwards!!!! Respect! What a hypocritical muppet! She never wanted Brexit herself for god sake! This whole bloody thing makes my blood boil!

My mum told me you had to earn respect

Respect is earned not a right. Thus far the performance of the Tories deserves none

theresa_may And the people of the UK demand respect from you and your incompetent, irresponsible Tory fuckwits who got us into this mess in the first place peoplesvoteuk fuckbrexshit toriesout

What you want 🎵 Baby, I got it What you need Do you know I got it?…

And how about some respect for the people of the UK theresa_may, the majority of whom did not vote to be thrown over a cliff edge.

What you want Baby, I got it What you need Do you know I got it?…

The arrogance of this woman and her advisers clearly knows no bounds. She/they have attempted an utterly pathetic strategy of 'divide & rule' re EU countries-& yesterday she was symbolically, if not literally, told where to go. The chickens are coming home to roost.

Resign !

You just haven’t earned it yet baby...

That statement sums up this lot, respect is earned not demanded and they have systematically squandered every ounce of respect anyone had for us.

When you have to state that, means you are not worth it.

Isn't Jeremy Corbyn in Liverpool this weekend ?

Do a dance for me

Can someone please tell Theresa May that respect can't be demanded but has to be earned? We're fed up with her silly Brexit schemes here in Europe. Waste of time, energy and taxpayer's funds in our opinion.

Why should the EU respect you Mrs May You can't dance You can't sing You can't control your party or do anything. (apologies to Leo Sayer) Maybot if the UK have no respect for you ... why would the EU?

theresa_may Maybe DavidDavisMP wasn’t such a good idea, he played the court jester, which didn’t show a lot of respect. Then we had BorisJohnson being outright disgusting. You should have kept them on a tighter leash instead of allowing them to undermine you and the process.

Mrs May is the party showing disrespect, she is expecting to 27 members of alliance to bend over to suit the latest ad hoc plan that came into her mind to stop the Conservative party splitting apart

Mrs May and her ministers are trying to use public

Mrs May, not the EU is to pay you respect but you have to pay respect to the EU. What do you expect in your self chosen isolation? You want to turn your back on our community. If you aren't able to offer GB a fair solution then yozu will have to resign from Prime ministry!

EXPECT? Are you drunk? Vision, strategy and execution wins respect. Being a British poltergeist doing a sclerotic Ostrich dance invites the ridicule which the Europeans show only in part.

You got to give respect to receive it first yea Tory scum

You're the one who went off in a huff, love.

"Respect us, give us the deal which you've already told us is completely unworkable for the last 18 months or we'll perform harakiri..." this government's incompetence is staggering...

Doesn't theresa_may realise that respect is EARNED......wtf has it done to earn any respect?

I want a divorce ... But we actually work well together .. nope divorce NOW ..oh ffs ... Give me respect godamn it ..

Why? Her government has spent 2 years disrespecting the EU 🤷‍♂️

Time to return Northern Ireland to Ireland. It should never have been created anyway and Scotland go for independence. The very existence of a U.K. is not based upon respect but on force so fuck your U.K.

So ashamed to be British right now with these Tory wank-gibbons representing us to the world - I want my country back ToriesOut ExitFromBrexit PeoplesVoteMarch labour LabourConference where are you? Is there no way to bring down this shambolic govt & get back to normality?

"Here's our plan. It doesn't respect your red lines. What do you mean "No"? Show me RESPECT!" - Theresa May

As my children's martial arts teacher likes to say "Respect is earned, not given". Sorry Theresa, you and your crazed cohorts have lost the respect of everyone you have dealt with, lied to and abused.

Earn that respect perhaps?

bye bye

That’s her problem. You don’t expect respect you earn it

This has nothing to do with respect, is this preaching to the Sun readers. A silly plan that was never acceptable is rejected, derr. LetsBlameThem

As an EU citizen living in the UK, I would strongly disagree. I have gone from being fully integrated to feel like a 5th column immigrant. A number that can be deported at will. No respect at all.

Foolhardy and belligerent with an undertone of aggression. Those who see through it know that she feels pressurised by the Eurosceptic shadows in the background and by an EU that has clubbed together. She is on her own; and if Scotland parts, these are amongst the reasons why.

Why?

Never demand respect, that is earned. The disaster of the elite manipulating Brexit for greed isn't fair to ordinary people now having to deal with the consequences of a corrupt voting system. The people deserve a vote or they will take to the streets BrexitShambles TheresaMay

We had it, she lost it. Her knicker-shitting episode just now won't win it back.

EU leaders are afraid of losing their jobs and graft money.theresa_may EmmanuelMacron AngelaMerkeICDU PaoloGentiloni marianorajoy

It’s time for the British to get out from the EU and stop dragging their feet.Britain

Entitled much? “Our party and hard right supporters have spent years slagging off Europe and spreading disgusting smears about European countries, but we demand your RESPECT!” Gosh, I wonder why Europe doesn’t want to play ball? Tories are the most entitled bunch of idiots!

I was not in favour of Brexit. However, I think Mrs. May's point is well taken. Like most Canadians, I respect the United Kingdom for its enormous contributions to law, governance, and social evolution. The EU should do the same. If ever there were a special case, this is it.

"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." OK, legally and medically its actually pertaining to a defendant's ability to determine right from wrong. And both apply here!

My word, imagine her sitting beside you all night. That's really what she called a press conference for? So that she could whinge? This only makes her weaker, surely?

Respect the position not the person

Rodney Dangerfield she ain't, is she folks? Am I right?!

Respect is *earned* and *lost*. Never entitled.

They told you nicely Chequers wouldn't work, but you wouldn't listen. TheresaMay is one of these people who is tone deaf to what is going on.

Conservatives May, leader of the Leaver Tories Expect even less when your economy shrinks, jobless rate climbs & bond rating worsens. Welcome to the truth of Brexit

Pity she didn’t say the same to Trump when he cut the back off her and her own party who disrespect her office ever day

This statement proves her hopeless situation

Michael Gove at weekend said we could tear up any agreement as soon as TM leaves office, Liam Fox advocates scrapping food quality standards. These people are lunatics.

May should expect the disrespect

Jesus...spit in their face and then ask for respect.

Pandering to the extremists in her Party. She should instead call them out...

I expect a million quid in my bank account by tonight. I reckon our chances of success are equal.

Earn don’t demand

I also expect it from my politicians, but eh, what can you do.

Good luck with that Tez

Nobody disrespects the UK. There are just two very different opinions on a future relationship.

Why? Britain showed nothing but contempt for the EU

Listening to theresa_may speak on Brexit confirms that Conservatives are ethically bankrupt; took a gamble & are leading the country steadily towards a cliff. Pseudo-macho approach towards the EU is laughable, disturbing & disgusting.They are clueless abt what democracy means.

Honorable Teresa, then be honorable and respectable instead of being a cunning "Brit". Those days of imperialism are gone.

Respect for what? Wanting to have all the benefits of the EU and none of the responsibilities? Are you stupid

wood10_ taking notes from you is it?

You don’t earn respect by unbuttoning your trousers, pulling them down to your ankles, sliding your underpants over your buttocks, bending over, looking back, and saying, “Do me.” LifeHack Brexit

In my book, respect should always be earned, never deserved.

Aaaaaand she’s lost it

Tereeeeeza, they're laughing at you. You couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery!

Brilliant.

Everything she needed to say 👍

Straight jacket not shown

Couldn't even deliver a statement on time.😂

Hmm difficult when most of your own MP’s don’t respect you 🤷‍♂️

I expect free biscuits.

I can understand that. It is not like she is getting any respect here. I think that there may be a reason for that.

Wot no cake

To receive respect it has to be earned

She'll be declaring war next.

Respect has to be earned!!!

I've said it before, and I've been very clear: she's a nutter.

Show some first..

Hard brexit it is. Lets go. We'll come out stronger in the other side.

While showing none yourself

Desperation from May as she realises that the game is up

Respect!

Respect for a total mess. Laughable really.

But only when she tops up the meter & has power 🤣 laughable lamentable typical!

Theresa May: Brexit will stop EU nationals 'jumping queue' ahead of non-EU workers – videoThe prime minister says Britain's future immigration policy will be based on skills rather than nationality So far from stopping immigration which is why a lot voted for Leave it’s just changing the source of cheap labour from EU nationals to Non-EU nationals. Brilliant, I'm sure loads more non-EU immigrants is exactly what all those super smart Quitters want. A fair shake to those workers from around the globe. It's two separate queues, surely. It's like having an express/priority lane. EU nationals don't jump a queue, it's a different criteria. Vile conflating from an MP who still thinks she's in the home office.
