Anyways, if Theresa decided not to pursue hard Brexit, she would have a problem, because her right wing would cause maximum problems for her with their voting power.

The Times is reporting Philip Hammond has agreed to stay only if May prioritises jobs and the economy when it comes to Brexit and Ruth Davidson has thrown her support behind that as well. Even David Davies suggested the plan might be to be revisited.
The election may have been lost elsewhere but the fact remains May campaigned for a strong mandate for her version of Brexit and she didn't get it. She is going to have to listen to others now.
