May to seek snap election for 8 June - bbc

Whatever your political persuasion, defend your corner here. All we ask is that you voice YOUR opinion, rather than just post a link to a half-hour youtube video. Politics can get a bit lively, and if you prefer a less combative debate, please post in the Politics for Moderates section instead.

What's your evidence?
I've seen it mentioned a few times. This is one such, that led me to think it could be rescinded.

As to us remainers staying quiet, I don't see the linkage to be frank. My views on Brexit have not changed. So May has called an election, it doesn't change the Brexit process one jot. She is looking for more support, presumably as she is feeling somewhat vulnerable in negotiations given the closeness of the referendum result. Other then that, an election won't change much at all.

Since us Remainers are now Saboteurs, then perhaps we will face criminal charges under May's new envisaged regime, mirrored on Erdogan's perhaps?
