After one hundred days in office, the grace period for British Prime Minister Theresa May is coming to an end, and the question is being heard more and more loudly whether she has made any plans for Britain's exit from the European Union in the meantime.
Until now, her mantra has been "Brexit remains Brexit", and she can thank the revolution for the jump in her career to Downing Street number 10, writes Deutsche Welle.
Public opinion pollster John Kurtis does not see any signs of remorse among Bitans and adds that they would decide the same in a re-vote.
Even Theresa May herself was against Brexit, and now she attributes it to herself, the analysis states, adding that she already traveled to Berlin in July, which was her first visit to a foreign country since she was elected prime minister.
Not only nice words awaited her there. The EU did not ask Great Britain to leave the Union, Chancellor Angela Merkel told her. What the political-economic separation should look like now (Article 50 of the EU treaty), the Tories are still arguing about. And May's concept is visible only in outline.
Since the Brexit referendum, completely new tones can be heard from the ranks of the Tories, and it seems that the days when the conservatives wanted to "protect" the economy from the state have passed.
Meanwhile, Theresa May wants a strong state, which seeks a "balance in favor of workers" and there is an impression that the austerity policy is coming to an end.
As she said, she takes the concerns of the losers of globalization seriously and their fears related to immigration are no longer written off as provincial.
On the contrary: the prime minister has now got hold of the city and liberal elites, writes DV and adds that Theresa May wants to speak out against the privileged position of the corporations, to close tax loopholes and regulate the financial market more strongly.
It is unbelievable that the political goals of a conservative politician completely coincide with the Labor program. But since the political competition led by Jeremy Corbyn propagates a hard left-wing course, the Tories are on the way to occupying the political middle.
The Tories are wondering how many of her predecessor's pre-election promises she can cancel without provoking new elections, says DV and notes that she has already loosened Cameron's strict austerity measures, and the goal of achieving a budget surplus by 2020 has been buried, and that she has the party's support in this.
The question is how he wants to position Great Britain after Brexit.
The tendency is in the direction of a decisive break. In early October, the Financial Times went so far as to demand that Britain's share of around 45.000 bottles of cognac and wine in EU cellars be withdrawn.
Not to mention the common cultural treasure and real estate of the EU. Property division in detail. Such footnotes to the unresolved divorce drama are of little interest to Theresa May.
She basically cares about stopping immigration from the EU. But freedom of movement within the Union is considered non-negotiable. If Britain sticks to that request, its remaining in the customs union is unthinkable. The EU does not want to allow goods and services to move freely, but people not.
There is much speculation about the Free Trade Agreement, which provides for the elimination of tariffs but contains bureaucratic hurdles. The free trade agreement between the EU and Canada could serve as a model. But it will cost time and the negotiations could take up to seven years.
Brussels cannot provide Britain with big concessions, but because of the very fear for the sustainability of the Union. The signs are that the exit from the EU will be quick and decisive, and Theresa May is the one who determines the direction.
We are leaving the EU in order to be a "completely sovereign and independent country". This means more border control and less access to the single market. But neither London nor Brussels still have an accurate idea, concludes Deutsche Welle.
