Theresa May announces resignation June 7, 2019
The controversy over the Brexit Deal and the adamant opposition of the British Parliament to the ‘new Brexit deal’ has cost Theresa May her job as the Leader of the Conservative Party (CP) in the United Kingdom. Accordingly, the Prime Minister on Friday succumbed to pressures from her party’s Members of Parliament (MPs) to step down.
Theresa May, therefore, confirmed that she will resign as leader of the Conservative Party on June 7 in order for a leadership election to take place this summer.
