Forty deputies of the British Parliament signed a letter about distrust to Prime Minister Teresa May, reports The Times . We are talking about representatives of the party of conservatives, which is headed by May. If there are eight thori who will put signatures against the prime minister, the party will initiate the procedure for re -election of the chapter, says The Sunday Times .
However, in the camp of eternal opponents of the conservatives, May positions are also very shaky. The leader of the parliamentary opposition, the representative of the Labor Party of Great Britain, Jeremy Corbin, wrote a column for The Sunday Times. In it, he pointed to all sore spots of the kingdom of the government and, in particular, to problems with Brexit, recommending May or put things in order or to leave.
“Cabinet resignations follow one by one. And if we talk about Brexit, then the mess and separation critically weakened the positions of Britain. Our country cannot afford a split and indecision in the very heart of the government, ”he wrote in The Sunday Times .
Indeed, only in November two members of the May government resigned. The first was the Minister of Defense of Great Britain, Michael Fallon, who, allegedly, left the chair of the head of the department due to accusations of sexual harassment of Julia Hartli-Bruer in 2002. The representative of Fallon, as soon as the information surfaced in the media, apologized for inappropriate behavior, and Hartli-Bruyer herself wrote on Twitter that her “knees were not injured”, and the story was so long ago that no one was already upset. Nevertheless, Fallon quit. The Guardian, citing close acquaintances of the ex-minister, wrote that there could be other similar stories, so Fallon preferred a resignation.
“He admits that some courtship could be inappropriate,” the newspaper quoted one of Michael Fallon's friends.
Less than a week later, an example of a colleague from the Ministry of Defense was followed by the Minister of International Development of Great Britain Pritish Patel. She told BBC reporters about her resignation decision, and they published a letter with a statement by the head of the department on Twitter . The reason for the resignation was the serious violations of the protocol by Patel - while on vacation in Israel, she, not agreeing on her actions with the British Foreign Ministry, met with senior officials of the country, and upon returning to identify the assistance of the Israeli army.
Resignations in May’s office may not end there. In the balance, the career of the first Minister of the Great Britain Damian Green also hangs. He is also accused of sexual harassment and the distribution of porn that was found on the official’s working computer. In particular, the activist of the conservative party Kate Maltby announced the Harrastment by Green. The story, as in the case of Fellon, is not the first freshness - according to the victim, it happened nine years ago. Green touched Maltby's knees in the pub.
“I can only assume that the charges are brought now, nine years later, with hidden motivas,” said Green The Guardian .
They say in the media about the possible resignation of the leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ex-mayor of London Boris Johnson. In particular, his shiftman as the head of the British capital, Sadik Khan, called on the Minister of Foreign Affairs to leave his position due to many misses.
“After a series of statements that insulted the inhabitants of Spain, Libya, the USA and others, he must leave,” Reuters writes with reference to the words of the khan.
Recall that in the summer of 2016 at a referendum, the British voted to exit the European Union. Negotiations on the terms of Brexit between London and Brussels began in June of this year and will last until the next.
