UK Prime Minister Theresa May has lost control of Brexit and now anything is possible | Analysis by janemerrick23
London The mantra of politicians who want Britain to leave the European Union has always been"take back control."
As Westminster prepares itself for a third consecutive night of drama, the question is now: Who is really in control of Brexit? The answer is not Theresa May. On Wednesday, she lost yet more votes, with members of her own Cabinet refusing to back her decision to keep no deal Brexit on the table. On Thursday, lawmakers will vote on whether to delay Brexit beyond March 29 -- and many see that delay as an opportunity to push for a soft Brexit, keeping the UK with strong links to the EU.
