“Expert: Can save the face of the brexitörerna”
“Theresa Mays pledge to resign if brexitavtalet voted on in parliament can be a way to save the face of the most hard-line brexitörer who had begun to walk towards supporting the agreement,” says an expert.”
“But the prime minister would still find it difficult to sit still.”
” First and foremost, it is about that she wants to make sure some conservative mps that she is not going to be in the lead the future negotiations on the relationship between the Uk and the EU. The trust that she had among them have recently consumed, ” says Nicholas Aylott, an expert on british politics and associate professor of political science at Södertörn university college.”
“– It can also be an excuse for many in the toughest brexitfalangen to back away from their previous positions, many of them have understood that Mays contract is the hardest of brexit as they can get. That May now sacrifice themselves, can save the face of them.”
“Come to the end of the road”
“It is difficult to predict whether the Mays offer to resign will be enough all the way, according to Aylott, who compares it with a 50-50 situation. Anyway, had May been forced to resign yet, because she simply no longer has the support of the party that she once had.”
“– She has had an almost impossible mission, to create a majority both in parliament and in the partigruppen. It has been an incredibly laborious process that has created deep divisions in the parliamentary labour party, the Conservative party and in the country. She has no friends left, no stödfalang. She has come to the end of the road, ” says Nicholas Aylott.”
“Johnson probable replacement”
“He believes that the former foreign minister, Boris Johnson, who also has been the mayor of London, has a great chance to replace May as leader.”
” It is a fairly open competition for the post. But most commentators believe that it is quite likely that the party chooses, Boris Johnson, if he passes through the first step and be nominated by the parliamentary group.”
