The flat backdrop obliterated a magnificent example of London's neo-classical architecture with a flat, grey, washed-out world map. The Prime Minister's body obliterated Europe, and the words "Our New Partnership" were located on the northern shore of the Caspian Sea.
It wasn't meant to be like this. Theresa May would have delivered this vital speech on Brexit in a more northerly location, closer to those Brexit voters than in London's Mansion House.
But there, again, the Prime Minister was assailed by metaphors. Her speech fell on a day when much of Britain has been paralysed by a pincer movement of storms from the east and the south-west. She couldn't get to the north.
