Theresa May is performing a Brexit balancing act. Earlier this week, May laid out her "clean break" from the EU, rejecting a "half in, half out" approach - single market access be damned. But whilst the Brexiteers were pleased - even Nigel Farage gave his blessing - today the Prime Minister faced a tougher crowd. At the World Economic Forum, in front of an international community weary of the cracks appearing in the global free trade project, May offered a reassurance: Brexit certainly means Brexit, but it won't mean a British retreat from the world. Can May have it both ways? Have the globalisers been convinced? Joining Simon Rose all the way from the belly of the beast itself is Steve Clarke, Share Radio's very own man in Davos.
