May looks to reassure country after days of chaos
Moments ago, British Prime Minister Theresa May took to the podium outside Number 10 to address the nation.
"I understand that [for] people getting on with their lives away from Westminster , the events of the last 24 hours have been unsettling," the British leader said.
"Now MPs have made it clear what they don't want, we must all work constructively together to set out what Parliament does want."
May said she had already conducted meetings with the Liberal Democrats, SNP and Plaid Cymru. She added that talks between several other parties would take place tomorrow and expressed her disappointment over opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's refusal to participate.
"The door remains open," she said.
