What is actually going to happen is that they will officially have some kind of hard-ish Brexit giving them the plus of 'having delivered Brexit'. Then they will protract the actual negotiations (which, remember, are yet to come) as far as possible, ending up with something that is actually more of a soft-ish Brexit. This will minimise the actual impact along the way, minimising any possible backlash. And any downsides will be completely blamed on the EU, or, if necessary, NI or ROI. Whenever any domestic issues boil up, the EU being contrary in the negotiations process will be highlighted to create an external enemy for the masses to hate. Whenever nothing much happens in the brexit negotiations, or it generally just isn't going well, they'll be quiet about it, which is exactly what a lot of the voters want.
Well, that's my pessimistic view on it. Allows them to capitalise on all the things they're "doing well", and hide from all of the things that they're fucking up. And then they're going to win the next election too because Labour will have spent the next few years in a protracted process of eating itself up.
