Theresa May accused of being ‘Donald Trump’s mole’ in Europe after UK tries to water down EU climate change policy

Theresa May has been accused of being Donald Trump’s “mole” in Europe after leaked documents showed the UK attempted to water down EU policies designed to tackle climate change.

While other European politicians have made clear to the Republican billionaire that his denial of climate science is a problem, the Prime Minister has remained resolutely silent on the issue.

Her visit to Washington – when the two leaders were pictured holding hands – was widely regarded as an attempt to build a strong relationship with Mr Trump, despite concerns about his attitudes towards women, migrants, Islam, Vladimir Putin’s Russia and other issues.

2. I think it was Rick Wilson who said "everything Trump touches dies."

Not that he's literally killing May, but if she doesn't keep her distance from him he'll kill her reputation and her credibility - as is happening to a lot of administration officials here.

3. I believe that the UK has a second referendum on the Brexit movement next month.

My intuitive guess is that the UK will vote it down this time. There's too much information about Cambridge Analytica, Robert Mercer, Russia, and Trumpy colluding to sway the first vote. This one may well have a different result.

4. Do you mean the election?

May is still likely to win, but perhaps the number of seats her party ends up with won't be all that big. Even so, Brexit will move forward.

5. If you look at May's reacting to Donald Trump at the NATO meeting.

It is clear that any hope that she had of a sane Trump is gone. I would not be surprised if she figures out a way to drag out Brexit, although Europeans want Great Britain gone from the EU.
