May krijgt hulp van Noord-Ierse DUP
Het ziet ernaar uit dat Theresa May gewoon aan de macht kan blijven na een deal met de Noord-Ierse Democratic Unionist Party (DUP):
Theresa May has struck a deal with the Democratic Unionists that will allow her to form a government, sources have confirmed.
Het lijkt vooral ingegeven uit angst voor premier Corbyn:
DUP figures insist their relationship with May’s team has been close since she became prime minister 11 months ago.
A DUP source said: “We want there to be a government. We have worked well with May. The alternative is intolerable. For as long as Corbyn leads Labour, we will ensure there’s a Tory PM.”
