I kind of thought that she and Philip Hammond were previously playing good cop, bad cop. By having Philip Hammond seen as more pro-EU than Therese May making the threats last week was quite a clever move.
Her repeating them today was less effective. Did she want the press to focus on these threats, ie a dead cat trick? Or was she dazzled by the attention of the Brexit press and decided to play up to them?
