Cameron heads out, May comes in: Drama in British politics

By Jill Lawless and Danica Kirka, Associated Press LONDON — David Cameron made his final appearance in Parliament as Britain’s leader with dignity and humor Wednesday, turning the usually raucous prime minister’s questions session into a time for praise, thanks, gentle ribbing, cheers — and a sprinkle of criticism. The warmth in the House of Commons culminated in loud applause and a standing ovation from his Conservative colleagues for Cameron, 49, who is resigning after voters rejected his advice and decided to leave the European Union.
