British Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservatives and the opposition Labour Party punished in local election for Brexit chaos: partial results by GuyReuters
LONDON - British Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservatives and the opposition Labour Party were both punished by English voters in a local election for the deadlock over Brexit, partial results showed on Friday.With more than 40 percent of English local council vote results declared, the Conservative Party had lost 359 councillors and the Labour Party had lost 74 councillors, according to a BBC tally.
As the two major parties, which are both nursing open fissures over Brexit, lost support, smaller parties gained. Nearly three years since the United Kingdom voted 52 percent to 48 percent to leave the European Union, there is still no agreement among British politicians about when, how or even if the divorce should take place.
“The hold of the Conservative and Labour parties on the British electorate is frankly looking now as weak as it has done at any point in post-war British politics,” Curtice said.
