There is so little we know about Theresa May, the lady slated to become the next prime minister of UK. The Brits, apparently, know more about her than we do and there is an easy explanation for that -- she's been interior minister for six years. May's job is arguably the toughest job in the government. No British politician, who has served as interior minister, ever emerges with his reputation intact. May, is clearly made of different stuff because she is the longest serving interior minister since the last 60 years. May, remained out of the Brexit campaign and returned at a time when practically all the men on both sides of the European Union debate abandoned ship. While Boris Johnston, David Cameron and Nigel Farage lost their nerve when faced with the enormity of the task ahead and quit, Jeremy Corby, leader of the Labour Party had to be booted out. It is into this leadership vacuum that May has stepped in and on her shoulders rests the task of steering Britain through a painful parting with the EU, and pulling the Conservatives out of the chasm that they now find themselves. She might not have a grand vision, UK newspapers remind us, but in a crisis the average Briton seem to think she know what to do. She has already signaled that Britain will invoke Article 50 when it is ready and not at the behest of Brussels, a clear indication that the UK is in a tough pair of hands.
