She did the sensible thing, a white paper.
I think the economic risks are real enough threats but overplayed by remainers.
The key point is non-tariff barriers affect mainly fintech, manufacturing can avoid most of the ill-effect.
Brexit, for once some facts.

The three dissenting judges clearly made a mistake in only considering the UK aspects, ignoring the provisions of article 50.
Their dissenting ruling was that the executive could trigger article 50, but adding that parliamentary approval was needed to complete leaving the EU.
Their mistake was in not considering that triggering article 50 meant leaving could be inevitable, since reversal is effectively subject to the approval of other member countries. This takes the final decision on whether we leave or not out of the hands of parliament, making the second part of their dissenting ruling nonsensical.
.
that is why I thought Mr Corbyn's response is wrong. Labour should oppose A50 first, wait for white paper discussion to complete then vote again. An important decision such as A50 needs more time.
It should also a free vote, like the one that started the referendum.

Perhaps they would if someone would offer to shut up the outpourings of the Daily Mail and Express that become more rabid every day?
I trust the white paper is soft, suitably absorbent, medicated with luck and suitably perforated at intervals for easy tearing?
Seriously though much deeper considerations are being ignored, actually none of that is as important as the loss of restraint that being a member of the EU imposed on the rabid Tory politicians, after Brexit watch all hell break out.

Don't let that bother you, no less a genius than Einstein believed if you can't express something in simple terms, then you didn't understand it very well.
Having a fancy education, is a good start, but as Soichiro Honda once said
"If you haven't got a good education, you have to learn how to think"
It's continuing the educational process by your own efforts throughout your life that matters, not being sure you already know everything once formal education is over.
You express yourself every bit as well as everyone else, my friend, better still you don't seek to baffle and confuse.
One way to find out how much the EU is worth is to see it from the outside, don't you agree?
By the time brexit happens, inflation would have come down a fair bit, the economic risks would have been reduced.
That's the problem in a nutshell, he has been employing Intelligence instead of listening to the siren sounds of a pack of congenital liars.
Try it and you too will quickly see what a pig in a poke Brexit really is.
The name should really be changed to Brexodus, as we are being led out into the wilderness in the hope of a fictional promised land.
How very true. With the wartime education system, two pathetic village schools I suffered and only having part time schooling some years, once my formal education was over the only thing I really knew well was that I hated school.
I'm told they are better now, but I'm not so sure. I think their main purpose is as daytime prisons for children to enable parents to work and pay taxes.

I'm still waiting for you to give me the source of your optimism.
Because so this week people like

and others are warning of the negative impacts of leaving the Single Market.
And the media will be busily covering up the level of poverty in the country, pretend people are not being robbed of their protection and rights, and the environment is going downhill in the pursuit of profit.
No thank you
That's no excuse for Gina and co using it as an opportunity to offer their own indoctrination, which is precisely what both statements amounted to..
To give some idea of scale on this, My sister who was older than I went to no less than 14 schools in Hull during the war years, only the last school survived albeit so damaged that more than half the windows were painted cardboard, and I went to that School in classes that averaged 45, and even one year reached 55 for one term before a new school was built to take some of the pupils.
The school was unheated, but it was not necessary with the number of bodies per class!
