'The Maybot is rebooted as strong and humble. Stumble for short.' 'Kim Jong-May awkward and incredulous as journalist asks question.' 'Supreme leader produces pure TV Valium on The One Show.'
Throughout 2017 John Crace, the Guardian's parliamentary sketch writer, has watched Prime Minister Theresa May's efforts to remain strong and stable and, indeed, Prime Minister. He coined the term 'Maybot' for her malfunctioning public appearances. And now he tells the full story of Theresa May's turbulent 2017 in the only fitting way he can - through the malfunctioning Maybot's eyes.
As waspishly hilarious as Craig Brown's diaries in Private Eye, I, Maybot is essential and hysterically funny reading for anyone trying to make sense of our crazy political year.
