Theresa May won no-confidence vote in British Parliament
More than 100 lawmakers from Theresa May's party who had opposed her Brexit bill voted to support her government.
Prime Minister Theresa May narrowly survived a vote of no-confidence in Parliament on Wednesday
The House of Commons voted 325-306 to reject the opposition motion of no confidence.
A day earlier, it dealt May a defeat on her negotiated agreement for Brexit, or the process of exiting the Europena Union.
Had it been successful, the no-confidence motion almost certainly would have ousted May and probably have forced a general election
March 29 is the date for leaving the European Union.
Ordinarily, a prime minister would be expected to resign after suffering a big defeat on a signature bill.
The vote of 432-202 against May’s Brexit plan was by far the biggest loss for a government on a major issue in modern times.
May is required to return to Parliament with proposals on how she intends to proceed.
Lawmakers then will have the opportunity to make new suggestions.
