I love the way a bad deal to a bunch of Tories will become an acceptable deal to them provided the woman who put all the work into it promises to resign. The resignation makes no change to the deal itself, of course: it's all (I presume) a combination of "if you go, we will be free to immediately blame you for making a deal we don't really want to support", and "Hey! I could be leader faster than I thought."
It just seems the most perversely mean spirited example of internal power politics due to lack of any relationship to improving a policy outcome.
