LONDON, Dec 12 (KUNA) -- UK Prime Minister Theresa May will face a vote of no confidence in her leadership later on Wednesday, the ruling conservative party said in a statement.
The challenge to May's position comes after the required 48 letters calling for a contest were delivered.
May, who has been prime minister since shortly after the UK voted to leave the European Union in 2016, has faced criticism in her party for the Brexit plan she has negotiated.(end).
