Theresa May is a lot more like Merkel than Thatcher.
YES!!
Theresa May was a compromise from the very beginning and had to tread lightly (publicly) to move the Brexit process forward when her heart was never in it. But behind the scenes May and Merkel were thick as thieves and delaying and hoping for a resolution well short of the interests of the voters.

The resignation of Boris is the classic signal that a confidence vote is in the works. And the vocal opposition to May will hopefully give them a prime minister that will implement the Brexit vote with the UK citizens best interests in mind instead of this "turd" as Boris Johnson has described it.
