I think she'll rely on a do nothing policy and ride it out at this time. But I think that the Northern Ireland border issue is going to be the one that wrecks her. It's been suggested that setting in motion a Northern Ireland referendum on abortion could be a more likely option than imposing a law, but I doubt if that would be any more acceptable to the DUP, and she can't afford to lose their support. In a sense the Tories are the junior party in the Westminster coalition, with the DUP holding the whip hand.
