Theresa May narrowly survives no-confidence vote after humiliating Brexit defeat

British Prime Minister Theresa May's government saw off a vote of no confidence in parliament on Wednesday, brought after MPs overwhelmingly rejected the Brexit deal.

British Prime Minister Theresa May has narrowly won a confidence vote triggered by Opposition Leader Jeremy Corbyn, following yesterday’s crushing defeat over Brexit deal.

The Labour leader called the vote after Tuesday's crushing defeat for May over the EU divorce agreement - but Ms May's Conservative MPs rallied behind her and the government won the confidence vote by 325 to 306, staving off the threat of a general election.
