British Prime Minister Theresa May and Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson appear outside 10 Downing Street in London in May. May was still clinging to power after Thursday’s snap election in which her Conservative Party unexpectedly lost its parliamentary majority. The results quickly sparked widespread commentary about how long she can stay on as prime minister. “The queen extended an invitation to President Trump to visit the U.K., and there is no change to those plans,” a spokeswoman for the prime minister said. “We cannot continue like this,” he said, predicting that even a loose alliance between the Conservatives and the Democratic Unionist Party in Northern Ireland cannot endure.
