Comment: May need to go after this Disaster

After this Disaster for Theresa May: the resignation. But not only you, but the whole of British politics has disgraced itself. Now, a second Referendum.

A comment by Jens-Peter Marquardt, ARD Studio London

What a crushing defeat: The historians are not able to recall that a British Prime Minister has been defeated once in Parliament so devastating. 1924 time the chief of a Labour had lost a minority government with a difference of 166 votes - this hurdle has skipped Theresa May's locker.

she now has counted a sad record of 230 – this margin, the number of no exceeded yesterday evening-votes the number of votes to their exit contract. More than a third of its own conservative MPs voted against, as well as the Opposition closed.

A political disaster

The term historic defeat in the face of this Dimension is a polite understatement. Disaster describes the extent better. A political disaster is not a vote on the Deposit on Cans or the like, but the most important question to be answered by the country since the entry into the Second world war.

political decency, each to politically reason to this result is a consequence of: Theresa May must go. She has shown that she can. You must resign now, in the interest of their country. Another, or Other, must try to make it better and to get the country out of Brexit-cul-de-SAC.

for Those that admire for months, Mays, tenacity, and fortitude, to finally not see that these properties are sufficient in this Situation, in this situation, probably even misplaced. First May you must see that yourself. You must now make the way free. Worse, it can hardly be.

Corbyn is a sad figure

Jeremy Corbyn makes today the attempt of the Prime Minister through a no-confidence to take a more active role. Would he make it better? This is not secure. The British know only that the Labour leader would like to move into the number 10 Downing Street. What he wants to do, not do not know, anyway, whether the old EU-skeptics keep the country in the European Union, or it wants to get. In this national crisis Corbyn is another sad figure, far from a shining light.

unfortunately, It is this: Given the huge challenge that the Brexit is in a failure of the entire political class in the UK.

Now, there must be a second Referendum

now, Therefore, for the country only one way out: The policy must, admit your failure, you have to give the decision to the citizens.

The British are in need of a second Referendum. The way to get there is difficult. The result is not sure. And the consequences will not be only pleasing. But everything is better than Theresa May more against the wall.
