Cameron announced his resignation after failing to convince voters to remain in the EU in a June 23 referendum . LONDON—Britain is set to get a new prime minister within two days, after a tumultuous two weeks that saw the previous one toppled and several potential replacements felled by political intrigue. Like Cameron, she comes from the pro-EU wing of the party, but leading anti-EU Conservatives quickly rallied around her Monday. The Conservatives aren’t the only ones thrown into turmoil by the referendum, which has also sparked a leadership struggle in the main opposition Labour party. “It is simply inconceivable that Theresa May should be crowned prime minister without even having won an election in her own party, let alone the country,” said Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron.
