   To be fair, I think Theresa May relied on advice from her Attorney   
   General and from the team of government lawyers at the Treasury. I don't   
   suppose she knows any law at all. I'm not sure what her specialist   
   subject is - maybe the fauna and flora of the Swiss Alps.   
      
   What it shows is the down-side of a government making cutbacks and   
   economies in government services. The in-house team of lawyers is not a   
   team of the brightest and best. Without wishing to be unkind, it isn't   
   likely that any of them would have excelled in their profession if they   
   had been in private practice. The Attorney General is a very mediocre   
   barrister who had no past experience in constitutional law. They gave   
   the advice that they knew their masters wanted to hear.
