Is it ok to feel sorry for Theresa May?

Theresa May has had many tough weeks during her premiership, but this week could be the toughest – or even her last. Her ministers are resigning, Parliament is criticising her Brexit deal and members of her own party are writing letters calling for her head, but through all of this she keeps on going. Should we admire her resilience or is this a mess of her own making? When Tina tweeted about this last week she got a huge response, so we asked Joey D’Urso and Ben Wright from the BBC’s Westminster office to weigh in.
