You've got to remember that May, like Cameron, was a Remainer, although she didn't take a greatly active role in the campaign, so we can't really expect her to be positive in her attitude towards leaving. Instead she is raising the spectre of No Deal to bolster support for her EU Deal in Parliament. Our negotiators have never been pro-active in getting a good deal and I suspect deliberately so, in order to weaken our position. There are a lot of soundbites about "taking back control" and "respecting the will of the people", but we all know, on both sides of the argument, that is absolute garbage, taking into consideration the actual events.
All that is likely to happen is that we won't get a Brexit as voted for, but we won't be staying in the EU either. She is only currently surviving because she is relatively secure in the Tory Party and Labour are running scared, because they are no better organised. I would have thought that the SNP could do more regarding a Vote Of No Confidence, but they don't seem to have any confidence in their own abiliity, except moaning all the time. Bizarrely, we are depending on the much-maligned DUP to stand up for the UK and fight against the Tory lily-livered negotiating team (now apparently only Mrs May).
I certainly don't have any confidence in our elected representatives to provide us with any positive outcome. And I still think that everyone is playing a game of chicken, with no-one doing very much except putting off the "Big Decision".
