A few examples :-
• Jacob Rees-Mogg - setting up funds in Ireland to maintain access to the EU for his wealthy investment class mates.
• John Redwood - Advising investors to get their cash out of Britain before the Brexit crash, whilst simultaneously propagandising in favour of "no deal" Brexit in The S*n.
• Nigel Lawson - Applying for French residency so that he can maintain the personal benefits of Free Movement, while the British public lose theirs.
• Michael Ashcroft - Promoting Malta as a great destination for investors to move their cash when the Brexit meltdown hits.
• Nigel Farage - Bagging German passports for his kids so that they can continue to benefit from Free Movement while millions of British kids lose the travel/work/study opportunities that it provides.
• Jim Ratcliffe (Brexiteer and Britain's richest man) leaving the UK to set himself up in the tax haven of Monaco.
All of these right-wing Brexiteers have masses of wealth to protect themselves from the economic ruination of the rapidly approaching Tory Brexit shambles they helped to inflict on the rest of us.
But ensuring they're alright while the poor and ordinary carry the burden of their destructive economic policies has always been the Tory way hasn't it? Just look at austerity dogma.

You're still stuck to the idea that "no deal is better than a bad deal" was ever true, regardless of who uttered it. But it was not true, and it remains a lie. There's the conundrum that you've chosen not to face by accusing May of treason and/or duplicity; the truth is that she had no choice, and that nobody -- no matter their position -- would have been able to do any better.
