Whoever is going to be the new PM will use the results to say - see people clearly voted for Brexit Party over the Tories because their message is clear - the people clearly want a no deal Brexit and the EU elections result will be sold as the 'people's vote'. They will ignore the fact that if you add up all of the clear remain parties they are in the lead. We are about t be lead by a hard Brexiteer (unless a miracle happens) and they will use this result to take us further to the the right wing dystopian rabbit hole.
