I don't mind a politician that makes u-turns for the right reasons but May's u-turns seem to be more for her own benefit than anyone else's. The only reason she's called a snap election after saying she wouldn't for months is because she spotted an opportunity to crush the opposition, She wants to consolidate her hold now because she knows she wouldn't win if the election happened when it should have.

It's an issue of opportunity rather than sincerity when it comes U-turns and politicians like May.
