She’d be toast, but arguably she already is, and any future Government of any party would have to start from scratch triggering Article 50.

If parliament vote down the agreement, then TM would be well within her rights to walk away. She did her best. It would then need a new PM to get us through no deal.
Once we have left the EU with no deal, the government and the EU would have to very quickly set out our new relationship.

No deal.
No Brexit is not an option.
