UK Election 2017

With no clear winner in UK Assembly, from the election, a wounded May signalled she would fight on. Her Labour rival Jeremy Corbyn, once written off by his opponents as a no-hoper, said she should step down, the claim she has denied vehemently. Of the 650 seats, the Conservatives have won 316 seats and Theresa May has staked claim to form the government. Though the biggest single winner, they failed to reach the 326-mark they would need to command a parliamentary majority. Labour had won 261 seats. Britain's negotiations for leaving the European Union are likely to become "far more difficult," say experts.
