			It was uncomfortable to watch her look round the press room, lost, she didn’t have a clue who to turn to.

 What made me laugh was when she stated that she is  doing things in the national interest.
 
A very strange national interest if the Conservatives are always putting their own political interests first.

 Maybe the Conservatives are the nation and we’re just a left leaning snake pit living alongside them.

 I would have more sympathy if she hadn't spent the summer mocking her opponents for their warnings about her plans. 
 
When May's government was falling apart I began to feel some sympathy because you felt she was at least trying to do the right thing in the end.
