Some of the saner Leave types are going a bit frantic about this...Apparently some think-thank called Legatum is de-facto deciding on everything and they have some insane ideas. Apparently May is simply a conduit and has no real input (other than adding a layer of pettiness and xenophia I would assume).

Easiest way is to sack Johnson, or move him to party chairman or something. Davis could be Foreign Secretary, and somebody like Greg Clark put into Dexeu. Clark did the talks with carmakers earlier and was sane enough to ensure them.
Whether they are still reassured, is a different question.

Yep, that notorious Tory hater.
With the repeal bill, there's been a fair bit of talk about the rule of law. Enter Richard Burgon to screw up an interview about unions obeying the law. I'm not bothered what McCluskey said, he can speak for his union as he sees fit. But the Lord Chancellor (who Burgon is shadowing) takes an oath to uphold the law. Basic stuff.
