So what should Theresa do now?
Clearly, she is intent on getting us out of Europe, but she needs to think about what she needs to do next to regain her credibility on this subject.
She needs to prepare for her Withdrawal Agreement to be rejected by the House of Commons, so she needs to name the three options there are left and explain how they will be voted on.
Perhaps the best way is for the first vote to be on the Withdrawal Agreement. If that is voted down, which seems likely, the next vote should be on a temporary EFTA/EEA membership to apply during the implementation period. If that is voted down, as also seems likely, there would be no further votes and preparations would be made for a 'clean' Brexit.
At least, that process will concentrate minds on the means of delivering Brexit. I really cannot think of a different approach that will show the people of this country that she was the only one actually able to get on with this. Talk about keeping her head when everyone else has been losing theirs!

When you take over a new job, you don't necessarily ditch all the work of your predecessor. You take on board what you consider to be relevant and either change or ditch the rest.
Best not to jump to conclusions.
