It’s been a tumultuous week across the water but UK Prime Minister Theresa May lives to fight another day after winning a vote of confidence in her leadership of the Conservative Party.
While the whole Brexit fiasco remains a complete and utter mess, some are now praising May’s survival skills as it had looked she was all but finished. Over here, RTÉ News jumped on that particular bandwagon the other night and what resulted was a montage of May played to the backdrop of Survivor by Destiny’s Child and in case you missed it, it’s well worth taking a look below…
