Another senior minister has quit British PM Johnson's government, and the ruling Conservative Party, in protest at Johnson's efforts to lead the UK out of the EU on Oct. 31 with or without a deal.
Those who were kicked out of the party last week included the longest sitting lawmaker in the House of Commons and the grandson of Winston Churchill."In recent weeks I’ve been torn between family loyalty and the national interest,"Jeremy Hunt, the former foreign minister who finished as a runner-up to Johnson in the Conservative Party leadership race earlier this summer, said Sunday that Rudd's resignation was “desperately sad news.
As politicians, commentators and experts alike scramble to assess the prime minister’s dwindling options — bringing down his own government has been raised as a potential last, desperate course of action — Johnson pushed ahead with his election demands.The bill forcing him to request a further extension to the U.K.’s divorce date with the E.U — possibly until January 2020 — is expected to become law on Monday.
Opposition parties don't want to agree to a vote unless they can ensure Johnson can't take Britain out of the E.U. without a deal.
