Theresa May Makes Deal To Form Government

Description

LONDON — British Prime Minister Theresa May agreed Monday to a deal with a small and conservative Northern Irish party to prop-up her minority government after more than two weeks of negotiations. The U.K. elections on June 8 left May's Conservative Party with eight seats short of the 326 needed to form an outright majority government. The result lead to weeks of talks between May's party and the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), which has just ten elected lawmakers — enough to give the Conservatives a slim house majority.
