But there were many losers: most prominent was Theresa May, Prime Minister, who lost her majority. May, never elected Prime Minister, will now be one without majority. May was against Brexit, or so she said, but upon becoming Prime Minister said she would negotiate energetically for it. Statements of loyalty from foreign secretary Boris Johnson notwithstanding, it would be naïve to assume that she can be Prime Minister for much longer. While many left-leaning supporters of the Labour Party see the outcome as a victory of sorts, it is anything but that.
