As with most politicians, she's put political survival ahead of the country. Would she have the cheek to try and postpone the vote again ??
She should be playing for England ladies', she's very good at kicking the tin can a long way down the road.
The EU was never going to offer much of an off-the-peg deal in the withdrawal agreement as it's a temporary measure due to the UK's slowness in negotiating; the EU is saving its energies for the fatiguing free trade agreement negotiations and not something that will last a couple of years. I'm pretty sure that the UK Civil Service will have communicated this to Theresa May but politically she is keen to ensure that she is seen to be trying to improve the deal than actually believing that she could get it improved.
