#Vote2017: Hung parliament: What are the options for the UK?

With the UK General Election ending in a hung parliament, there could be days or weeks of political horse-trading before the final form of the next government is settled.

No party has emerged with an overall majority meaning the incumbent Conservative Government stays in office until Theresa May either does a deal - most likely with the Democratic Unionists - or goes to Queen Elizabeth II to tender her resignation and that of her administration.
