You’re correct, what she’s done is incompetence on a scale that ought to be impossible at the hands of someone who has managed to attain such high office. That’s not what Den said though, which was basically a boilerplate objection to Tory government, that just doesn’t stand up to scrutiny in the present circumstances. A great many Tory parliamentarians (possibly a majority of them) wouldn’t have made the moves she has. Most of them didn’t even want her to get the job.
