Spanish radio host mocks Theresa May over election backfire
Carlos Herrera, of radio station Cope, said Britain was now “in big trouble” as a result of the General Election and the Conservative party was to blame.
Speaking on his radio show, Herrera referred to Artur Mas, former president of Catalonia, who won two elections but neither with an absolute majority.
He said: "If I had to give you a headline, it would be 'Even though during some hours of the night' – I know, the headline is long - 'Mr Jeremy Corbyn was winning and surprising everyone, the final result gives the victory to Theresa May, but it is doesn’t give her an absolute majority.'
"With that, she got herself into a weird business, and there are already numerous critics for these elections.
"What this lady has done... I mean, this happens to many people, it happened to Artur Mas as well. Do you remember?

These are the things that sometimes happen in politics when inconsistency and mediocrity come to power
"This lady had an absolute majority, and people can ask, 'well, if she had an absolute majority, why did she need to revalidate it, to get herself into this mess and to risk everything to manage a Brexit that she could have handled with the majority in Parliament that she had?'
"Well, because she wanted to legitimise herself, that's why she called the elections.
"She wanted to legitimise herself, 'since I have not been elected by voters, this is the way to have a free pass, be applauded and supported...'
"Well now it turns out that the Conservative party has gotten the UK into big trouble once more.
"These are the things that sometimes happen in politics when inconsistency and mediocrity come to power."

Britain will have a minority government after the Conservatives failed to gain the majority needed, following a night of Labour wins and SNP losses as a defiant Theresa May refuses to resign and gets the backing of the DUP vowing "let's get to work".
Theresa May put Brexit first as she struck a deal with the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) to form a minority government.
A defiant Mrs May ignored calls for her to resign and formed an alliance with the DUP in Northern Ireland.
Mrs May said that despite having lost their majority in the Commons, only the Conservatives had the "legitimacy" to form a Government.
Speaking on the steps of Number 10, she insisted her government “can provide certainty for Brexit” and pledged to take Britain out of the EU.
In light of recent terror attacks in Manchester and London, the Prime Minister vowed to “crack down on the ideology of extremists” as she promised "put fairness and opportunity at the heart of everything we do".
