A reporter on the Brexit chaos currently unfolding gave shadow education secretary Angela Rayner, and thousands of Britons, the best and worst moment of the bedlam so far. The unnamed journalist reported that prime minister Theresa May is “exiting number 10”.

Obviously, this time, May wasn’t leaving her PM lodgings for long. But it’s easy to see why Rayner thought she was.

Clearly, May’s on very shaky ground. So no wonder Rayner thought she was about to see the back of this PM. She may still yet.

We know everyone is suffering under the Tories - but the Canary is a vital weapon in our fight back, and we need your support

The Canary Workers’ Co-op knows life is hard. The Tories are waging a class war against us we’re all having to fight. But like trade unions and community organising, truly independent working-class media is a vital weapon in our armoury.

The Canary doesn’t have the budget of the corporate media. In fact, our income is over 1,000 times less than the Guardian’s. What we do have is a radical agenda that disrupts power and amplifies marginalised communities. But we can only do this with our readers’ support.

So please, help us continue to spread messages of resistance and hope. Even the smallest donation would mean the world to us.
