UK Prime Minster takes floor in the House of Commons as two of her cabinet members resigned today over her Brexit plan. May thanks former Foreign Minister Boris Johnson and Brexit Minister David Davis.
May emphasized that the new Brexit plan would take back control of laws and borders. At the same time, she rejected EU’s proposal and warned that “if the EU continues on this course, there is a serious risk it could lead to no deal.”
May also defended the plan regarding the common rulebook on goods as she said “the friction-free movement of goods is the only way to avoid a hard border between Northern Ireland and Ireland and between Northern Ireland and Great Britain.”

The Chancellor of Exchequer Philip Hammond expressed her support to May in his tweets.
