Theresa May takes centre stage in parliament's box-office show

Theresa May used her first parliamentary grilling as Britain's new prime minister on Wednesday to taunt the opposition over women's rights, pointing out that it was her party that had made her the country's second female leader after Margaret Thatcher. May was appointed to Britain's top job a week ago after David Cameron resigned following the country's vote to quit the European Union, leaving her the difficult task of uniting the Conservative party and negotiating an exit from the bloc.
