Brexit Posturing

With Johnson and Davis now gone from the Cabinet, I imagine that Theresa May will now face a gruelling period during which they seek to pretend that any further changes to the Brexit position are down to her weakness  rather than inherent weakness and incoherence of the whole project.  I am struck by the way both of them employ military metaphors and simply ignore the actual problems of customs, hard borders and so on. 

In my perhaps cynical view they are simply trying to avoid blame for securing us a worse deal outside the European Union than if we stayed in it.
