UK Prime Minister Theresa May survives vote of no confidence after humiliating Brexit defeat
- The vote was called by opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who called on her to quit her ‘zombie government’ and ‘officially dead’ Brexit proposal
- May has promised to return to parliament on Monday with an alternative Brexit strategy devised through cross-party talks with the opposition
British Prime Minister Theresa May survived a no-confidence vote on Wednesday that was sparked by the crushing defeat of her Brexit deal just weeks before the UK leaves the European Union.
A stunning 24-hour span saw May on Tuesday dealt the heaviest drubbing by parliament in modern British political history – 432 votes to 202 – over the divorce terms she reached with Brussels.
