Theresa May's government Survives No-Confidence Vote After Brexit Plan Defeat


Theresa May fended off a no-confidence vote in her government on Wednesday, a day after she suffered a crushing defeat in Parliament when lawmakers rejected her Brexit deal.

She won 306 to 325, with her Conservative Party and Northern Ireland’s Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) — whose partnership props her up government — backing her in the final count.

Now that May’s government has survived, she will meet with party leaders to put together a Brexit “Plan B,” which she has to present to Parliament by next Monday.
