Theresa May to resign as prime minister


(BBC) – Theresa May has said she will quit as Conservative leader on 7 June, paving way for a contest to decide a new prime minister. In an emotional statement in Downing Street Mrs May said she had “done my best” to honour the 2016 EU referendum result. It would remain a matter of “deep regret” that she had been unable to deliver Brexit, she added. But a new PM was “in the best interests of the country”.
