You can be assured of one thing, Theresa: you won't be the last Prime Minister to fall to the rampaging, all-devouring monster that is Brexit. Your successor will too, and probably their successor as well. Eventually, perhaps we'll get a Prime Minister who, noticing the suspiciously fresh pile of severed limbs by the door of Number 10, will decide to turn back. Perhaps by that point, they'll decide it's just easier to blame the Opposition than to try and follow through on a doomed policy.
It's a wild prediction to make, but I think it's not unreasonable to imagine that this time 12 months from now, we'll have had no fewer than five different Prime Ministers all try, and fail, to make Brexit happen. By that stage, we might all be thanking our lucky stars for revoking Article 50 - and not just hardcore Remainers like myself.
Should the Conservatives continue to pander to the far-right, they will forever find themselves outflanked, with the Brexit monster gnawing on their legs - because Nigel Farage and his Brexit party will always find some new, even more outlandish demand - and will then declare that anything less would be a "betrayal" of the "People" who have "spoken". Should the Conservatives try to forge a new compromise, their own (largely geriatric) supporters and activists will take them out and leave their ashes as burnt offerings to the Brexit monster - lest it come for them in the night.
