This Tory twister smashes records for broken vows

- BY KEVIN MAGUIRE ASSOCIATE EDITOR

LIAR, liar, Theresa May’s pants are on fire.

Today’s the day to boot in the ballots the slyest and slipperies­t Tory twister of them all.

She would be banned from politics if compulsory lie detector tests were introduced, as the Conservati­ve charlatan has little more than a passing acquaintan­ce with the truth.

From fibbing about her party’s dire record and frightenin­g plans, to telling blatant porkies about Labour and Jeremy Corbyn, May has proved herself unfit to be Prime Minister.

In the election she lied she’d never hold, May’s perfidy has smashed records by breaking promises twice before polling day: first on social care, then on human rights.

Her political exploitati­on of terrorist murders was shameless, genuinely shameful.

May’s inability to organise her own smooth coronation warns us European leaders in Brexit talks would run rings around her.

I think she’ll win, alas, with an increased majority to unleash a Tory fatwa on decency and fairness. Yet we live in hope.

The past few weeks have showed us a meanspirit­ed, small-minded deceitful Conservati­ve with the appeal of a half-full carton of sour milk.

And liars always get caught out…
