The UK government led by Theresa May, has survived to fight another day, after winning a no-confidence vote, tabled by Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party, following parliament rejecting the PM's Brexit deal, earlier on Tuesday evening.
The
no-confidence vote was defeated by 19 votes – the government
winning by 325 to 306. It's a rare positive note for May's Tory
cabinet after the humiliating Brexit defeat.
Speaking
immediately after the vote, a victorious May said she was "pleased"
that the House expressed its confidence in her government. May said
she will "continue to work" to deliver on the result of the
Brexit referendum and leave the EU.
May
invited the leaders of parliamentary parties to meet with her
individually, beginning on Wednesday evening.
