The thought crossed my mind earlier. It would be the ultimate two fingers to all those who tried to stab her in the back and salvage her reputation, at least with a large section of the population. It isn't that preposterous.

But it can’t happen that way, legally. The Miller case would kybosh it unless it goes through Parliament, so an announcement like that could be quickly displaced.

I had thought she would have to go through parliament to revoke also.

News of this was officially broken by Varadkar. The amount of hostility for him and Ireland on twitter for butting into their affairs is something to behold. Would May have asked him to let that information out or was his acting off the cuff?

One might do it, but in practice it can be set aside. It would be a pointless exercise.

No, but she can put forward a vote on doing so as a parting gift. It would be a massive dilemma for individual MP's, I doubt it could pass, but it might be her way of releasing the frustration of the past few years and taking a principled stand on departure.

But that would only be a vote, which again would depend entirely on the political will, and wouldn’t amount to revocation.

It really depends on how May views Brexit, and she has not really come across as wanting to avoid the inevitability at all costs.

Well, it is often forgotten that she was never in favour of Brexit and has spent her entire time as PM trying to appease Brexiteers. It isn't beyond the realms of fantasy, although skirting very close to it, that she might decide to give them a parting shot.

What are the chances of Jeremy Beadle coming into Brussels the night of Thursday 28th March whipping off a Theresa May costume and telling everyone that Brexit was just a wind up on everyone?  The real Theresa May walks out in stiches of laughter and Donald Tusk points at her shouting ''I f**king knew it had to be a wind-up!''and swears before breaking into laughter.  Then March 29th Beadle has May and Tusk back at the itv studio laughing off the whole episode before Beadle says to the audience ''give Donald and the EU a big round of applause for being such great sports.'' Cue crowd cheering and applauding.

She was a Remainer, that is true. As was appeasing Brexiteers. However, I think the appetite for Brexit has been sufficient to avoid any moves to stop it on a whim. I also feels she knows it would be legally difficult.

It is highly unlikely, I just wouldn't rule it out. It would be straight from the mind of Armando Iannucci! Her patience must be completely gone with the Brexiteers though.

Totally. And I think any efforts on the part of leavers to stare down the EU until the final moments as it would be one of the most monumentally stupid political approaches ever taken. The DUP may well be a lost cause but those numbers could conceivably be made up elsewhere.
