British Brexit Secretary resigns over differences with PM
November 15, 2018

The Brexit secretary Dominic Raab has resigned, saying they could not support Prime Minister Theresa May’s Brexit plan, which the Cabinet approved with majority vote on Wednesday.

On Twitter, he said, I cannot in good conscience support the terms proposed for our deal with the EU.

Raab has become the second Brexit secretary to resign from May’s Cabinet. His predecessor David Davis resigned in July over his varied views on Brexit from those of the prime minister’s after the revelation of the Chequers a roadmap Brexit plan by May.
