Husband Philip was by Theresa May’s side as she finished last day of campaigning

PHILIP MAY was by the Prime Minister’s side yesterday as she embarked on a gruelling 600-mile, 24-hour dash for votes.

A day after insisting to the Sun she was not a “robot” Theresa May showed her softer side by hitting the campaign trail with the love of her life.

Mr May was with the PM as she met butchers in London’s historic Smithfield meat market at the crack of dawn.

The pair then talked to pensioners at a lawn bowl’s club in Southampton and he was proudly by her side as she issued a rallying call to activists in Norwich.

At the penultimate stop of the Tory’s Election campaign, the investment manager chatted to shop workers at the Dunelm Mill home furnishing store in Nottingham.

He asked one lady if she got a loyalty gift after 10 years of service – triggering light hearted suggestions that Theresa May was ready to serve two full terms as PM if she wins today.

It was the first time the notoriously publicity shy Philip May had taken such a high profile role since appearing on BBC’s The One Show a month ago.

In their first ever interview together the pair joked about “boy jobs and girl jobs”.

They met at university with both stressing it was “love at first sight”.

Theresa May told the Sun on Wednesday that she was not in politics to be a “stand-up act” after criticism about her Election campaign.

She insisted she didn’t wear her heart on her sleeve because “it’s not me”.

The PM also said she had never heard her social media critics’ nickname for her – the Maybot.

She said: “That’s not a description of myself I’d recognise.” She told the Sun: “I know people want to know a bit more about the person – I can fully understand that.

“But the overwhelming feeling I get is most people just want their politicians to just get on with the job.”
