Theresa May

Theresa May is one of those political figures I find genuinely fascinating to study, even if her tenure was defined by an almost Shakespearean level of misfortune. She was only the second woman ever to serve as UK Prime Minister, which is a historic achievement that sometimes gets buried under the avalanche of Brexit chaos — and that's a shame. She studied at Oxford, spent six years as Home Secretary before stepping into Number 10 in 2016, and then inherited what is arguably the most impossible political brief in modern British history. I think she was a serious, dogged, deeply stubborn politician who kept walking back into a burning building hoping she could put out the fire through sheer willpower. She couldn't, obviously, but watching her step down in 2019 was genuinely moving. The "Strong and stable" meme haunts her legacy, but the determination was real.
