A humiliating Brexit defeat, but May will likely stagger on
London (CNN)Just 24 hours after incurring a historic parliamentary defeat, British Prime Minister Theresa May faces another challenge to her premiership: A vote of no confidence in her government.
Anyone who doubted the degree of chaos in British politics right now should consider this: Many MPs who Wednesday will vote to save May’s government are the same MPs who Tuesday night inflicted the defeat of her Brexit deal which triggered the confidence vote in question.
Pro-Brexit Conservative MPs don’t like the prime minister’s deal to withdraw from the European Union, but they really hate the prospect of a Labour government under the hard-left Jeremy Corbyn.
