I'm interested why you say this. The perception in the UK is absolutely that she was not up the job and was removed for that reason.

Well, you never get that high in politics if you don't have some traits for that, or you are pushed there by others on purpose. Either way it means she fell victim to intrigue - by getting ousted from PM position or by being installed there on the first place.
