British election

Prime Minister Theresa May lost her majority in the British election yesterday but still has the most seats.

The Conservatives reduced number of seats could put the Brexit negotiations in jeapordy.  May called the election early in hopes of increasing her majority to strewngthen her hand in exit talks with the European Union…but failed. Now pressure is mounting on her to resign.
