JAMES v BRIAN v THERESA WHO’S THE BEST MAY? • PRE-RAPHAELITE muse Christina Georgina Rossetti famously wrote: “There is but one May in the year.” But she was talking out her fucking arse. That’s because, as everyone knows, there are actually three Mays - car nut JAMES, Queen axe-man BRIAN, and maladroit failed PM THERESA. But which one is the best?
