    She's called the election in the hope that she can get a larger majority to drive through the brexit she wants. At the moment she only has a small majority so a few bitter remainer back benches can spoil the party.

    A Tory landslide will result in a hard brexit with no pampering to the EU.

    Go Tezza.

    Or alternatively so she can ignore her Eurosceptic backbenchers and go for a softer Brexit, remember she is a Remainer/ neo-lib/ globalist, need to keep an eye on her.

    Funnily enough the best chance of getting a hard brexit is if Labour do better than expected and keep the majority down. In those circumstances May will have to listen to the right of her party. If she has a 150 majority thats the last you will see of Fox and Davis having anything to do with negotiations and Boris will be put back in his cage.

    I never said cliff edge and the phrase hard brexit has been used by almost every poster on this subject.
    I suspect after the election May will have a large majority and will not have to pander to the right of her party. As I said, I would imagine that Fox and Davis will be history and Boris will be demoted. In their place will be less eurosceptic ministers who will dial down the rhetoric. Reaching a quick agreement on EU citizens living here and British citizens living in the EU should be a priority to show goodwill later on down the line.
