People are commenting on that site that May was elected to find a way to keep Britain in the EU. I haven’t been keeping up with the news over there to know if that’s true or not.

In public international law, clausula rebus sic stantibus (Latin for “things thus standing”) is the legal doctrine allowing for treaties to become inapplicable because of a fundamental change of circumstances.
