I just watched Tuss' speech and came back to this one. Holy shit.

[AvianX]

Tbh she aged 10 years in those 3 years since this speech

[chrishannon]

Amazing speech..heartfelt..and made me feel a sense of pride in our country.

[ekfylobifteki]

Wow her speech was amazing, would never expect to hear those words by a Conservative politician

[Mitch-cwnd]

Very exquisite, accurate and motivational speech!

[petekelvin]

Successful people don’t become that way overnight. What people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

I'm no fan of hers, but she played the game very well. She publicly supported remain without campaigning for it, even though it was fairly obvious she was in full favour of Brexit. She knew if Brexit happened Cameron would be finished, and when it did she jumped straight in.

It’s times like this that I regret the vilification she received. If only everyone knew what would come when she left, I think that most would have her back in a heart beat.

[zoodlex]

They all say the exact same thing at the start of their acceptance speeches

[martpast]

this woman not only pronounces very distinctly but her talking is so clear and simple that i can understand it completely in one almost go.

[StepSoftlyGhost]

Cut the shit and tell us how much freddos are going to cost.

[dbsirius]

0:42 No...David Cameron bailed after he split the country in half.

[rajeshcat]

She is a wonderful lady, I like her I hope she stay for a long time as a PM.

[josephdyson]

Probably her best moment as prime minister. Says a lot about her premiership

[RoswellNight]

She boldly expresses her resilience, power, and strength. She's for the working class. She stands tall and strong against opposition, and will not back down! Here's to the new Iron Lady!

[BernadetteXu]

i still remember reciting this exact whole speech in a presentation at high school 'cause i was magnetized by her posh accent. I'm not a native speaker, by the way😎

[Lennon]

I can't believe I thought she might be 'ok'

[zeroeffects]

Funny thing is, she's considered a conservative in the U.K., but is probably just as, if not more liberal than Hillary Clinton. Shows you how far right America has moved.

[ettielumpkin]

Welcome, Theresa May! I have the feeling that you are a true and steadfast type! It has raised my hopes for The United Kingdom of Great Britain to see you as the new Prime Minister.

[liamblackman]

Let's stop attacking her and just see how she gets on and then we can make our minds up
