The UK is divided and, as Gary would say, Dave divided it. Mrs May has the unenviable job of trying to unify this divided nation and she will not do that that pandering only to the views of one side or the other.

She must find a middle ground and both sides must make compromises in finding a Brexit solution that causes the least economic damage but still fulfilling the referendum decision to leave the EU.
Democracy ... the worst system ... apart from all the others.
