I am Theresa May's doppelganger

[FlutterShite]

I look exactly like Theresa May and there's nothing I can do about it. It's become a living heck. My hair will not do anything other than that stupid fluffy shape (people used to call me Gail Tilsley because of my hair. I didn't appreciate how lucky I was at the time) and my face just sits there, looking like hers. Glasses on or glasses off. Smiling or resting hangdog face.

The filthy looks I'm getting are unreal. It matters not that the PM is unlikely to be driving around east Hull in a 54-plate Ford Focus, or skulking around Bilton Asda in black leggings and a Superdry hoodie. Especially with everything that's going on with Europe right now.

Even when knuckleheads are not growling at me or jabbing their meaty fingers at me and calling me names, I get horrible glares from everyone.

I don't know why I'm telling you, tbh, other than to say thanks a bunch, Theresa May, for ruining both my face and my life.

I'm so very, very sorry, OP! What a miserable fate!

You really only have one realistic option: invest your life's savings into plastical surgery and change your diet to "chocs only".

Granted, morbid obesity is going to shorten your lifespan somewhat - but you'll spwnd whatever time you have left not looking like TM. And that's got to be worth it.

Actually, one of the school mums looks like Gove and there's a girl in my son's class who's not a 100 miles from Rees Mogg. We could form a supergroup.

Look how cute she was when she was young!

She is very striking woman, her only problem is her weird grimace... and being a Tory

Can I pass your details on to the crowd at the No 10 Vigil? you could join FauxBo!

did go to the march! But in a nice pair of Merrell walking shoes and a pompom beanie hat, so incognito and looking about 100 years old

You should have worn a smart skirt and jacket, thrown a few dodgy dance moves, given a few press interviews - really messed with people's minds!

Hey we met at the people’s march

Can you vouch for her, given the lack of a photo?

Ooh I live in East Hull and frequent the ASDA in Bilton! I promise not to mention Brexit if I spot you!

Bloody hell, tennisracquet, that looks like my daughter. (sobs)

Mumthedogsbeensick it's not the sort of place where it helps to look like a Tory, is it?... Thank you re Asda.

Oh no OP have you tried putting a bag over your head?!
In all seriousness, I’m sure whatever you think, you’re actually much prettier than TM! And a nicer person

Could we have a side shot?

You should pay John Prescott a visit that would really freak him out!

I clicked on this expecting it to be an 'ask me anything' 😂

Oh come ON!
Stealth boast obvs...

Bossinger no chance, because of the Gail Tilsley thing. I cannot look at photos of myself, let alone upload them to the world.

CakeNinja you are lovely!

You could get hair extensions fitted or curl your hair, etc. or even wear a wig lol

Cash in, she's having a moment but it won't last .

Kedgeree if I were one of those people who were all confident and could parade around in full view of the public, I'd be laughing, wouldn't I?

Instead, instead, I just hide away.
Inside my head I'm Ann Hathaway.
I wish, I wish I could just have my day.
But I'm crushed by looking like Theresa May.

I'd be tempted to have loud fake phone conversations "Nigel? Yes, the plan's working really well, remind me what I do next?"

I think TM looks remarkably fresh considering, as frankly if I had been in the spotlight globally to the extent that woman has, then I would look like Ursula Andress... on the turn at the end of 'She'.
It's a bit of bad timing for you OP but nothing a few blonde streaks, dark glasses, a baseball cap and a bit of adidas sportwear wouldn't subtly change...

You might look like TM, OP, but don’t let it worry you, because you’re bloody funny.

God, definitely join an lookalike agency. You could make a fortune.

Alas, alas it's ruined your day
You look just like Theresa May
But there is still much light to be found still
At least you don't look like Winston Churchill

I love Mumsnet. Thank you for making me laugh, you lot.

Ah, op, shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate
Than our unelected leader May
And our EU lease has all too short a date...

Please go to Brussels, OP, and call a halt to the whole thing.

do you have the necklace she wore on the day she lost her voice?
