UK PM faces fight for her political life in Brexit deal voteBy The Manila Timeshome/News/Latest Stories/Today's Breaking News/UK PM faces fight for her political life in Brexit deal voteLONDON: British Prime Minister Theresa May faces a fight for her political life this week in a parliamentary vote that will decide the fate of her Brexit divorce deal. A big loss could spark immediate challenges to May from both within her Conservative Party and the opposition Labor party. She also raised the specter of an early election and a possible return to power of the opposition Labor Party for the first time since 2010. EU President Donald Tusk signalled that no concessions would be made after speaking to May by phone on Sunday. May would then be expected to submit the touched-up version for a second vote at an unspecified date.
