You and I stand on poles apart opposite political sides.
However what you say I always look at.

I will concede she was given the hardest job to do.
Re brexit.
However she could have brought all parties and UK Nations into the planning to heal divisions but chose not to.

Sometimes sticking to your guns is a bad thing.
She has gone as far as her stance can take this and she has not won over her own party with her deal.
It won't pass the parliamentary vote as it is and she wouldn't be then sticking to her guns, if she went for changes now.

To push ahead with this agreement when she knows a quarter at least of her own government will abstain or vote against it, is pure folly in my view.

To step out now, saying she'd done her best and let a new PM make a new attempt.
Would be far wiser than putting this to a vote, losing it and then not being able to do anything further.

Prolonging the killing off of this agreement via a parliamentary vote with all the warnings that will happen.
That's really bad judgement by any standards.

She got the job at the wrong time, unfortunately for her.
Then again as I say, I've never liked her as a politician even in my.more Conservative leaning years.
