Jo Johnson Resignation Deals Major Blow To Theresa May's Brexit Hopes telegraph.co.uk
Theresa May’s hopes of getting a Brexit deal through Parliament were dealt a major blow on Friday after the transport minister Jo Johnson resigned so he can vote against the Prime Minister’s “terrible mistake”.
The Remain-supporting brother of Boris Johnson said Britain now “stands on the brink of the greatest crisis since the Second World War” with Mrs May about to present MPs with a choice between “vassalage and chaos”.
He said he and Boris – who led the Leave campaign – were now “united in dismay” as he accused Mrs May of the worst “failure of British statecraft” since the Suez crisis. He said he now backs a second EU referendum.
