The then leader of the opposition Jeremy Corbyn called for another no-confidence vote against May over the Brexit deal. However, the motion was defeated by a narrow 325 votes to 306.

Britain&nbsp;has experienced a tumultuous period ever since Cameron left office due to Brexit. Before him, Gordon Brown had served three years as prime minister from 2007 to 2010 and had served as Chancellor of the exchequer under Tony Blair.

Blair's enjoyed a long stint as prime minister lasting from 1997 to 2007. Gordon Brown had stepped down as Labour Party leader in 2010 and tendered his resignation to the queen while asking her to invite the leader of the opposition David Cameron to form the next government.

David Cameron's tenure lasted from 2010 to 2016, however, his decision to hold the Brexit referendum became his political Waterloo as he was forced to step down from office triggering a long period of uncertainty as May took over.

PM Johnson who had won the elections in 2019 by a landslide now stands at crossroads as he&nbsp;tries&nbsp;to win over party members to thwart a no-confidence vote and&nbsp;seeks to pull Britain out of the post-Covid era and begin economic regeneration.&nbsp;
