Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte used a Monty Python movie reference to describe U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May’s tenacity on Brexit despite repeated defeats.
“I have a lot of respect for Theresa May -- she reminds me occasionally of that Monty Python character where all his arms and legs are cut off and then says to his opponent: let’s call it a draw,” Rutte said in an interview on the “WNL op Zondag” television talk show on Sunday.
