Official spokesperson at 10 Downing Street
confirmed Monday that May had left London to go on vacation on foot.
Political commentators recalled that it was about
walking holidays in Wales in 2017 that prompted the Prime Minister to call a
general election.
Instead of winning a larger mandate from
voters, May saw a government with a slim majority replaced by a minority
government with fewer than 326 seats needed to keep total control.

Prime Minister David Lidington has declared meetings between government ministers and
their opposing Labor Party numbers are expected to continue this week.
But until now, no schedule of discussions has been established.

granted last week by the EU Council, Britain has more than 199 days to reach a
