Three more resignations in the British government due to Brexit

Several ministers resigned today in the British government, in protest of Prime Minister Theresa May's agreement with Brussels on the exit of Great Britain from the European Union.

Brexit minister Dominic Raab was the first to resign, stating that his conscience does not allow him to support the draft agreement..

Within hours, Work and Pensions Minister Esther McVey, ruling Conservative MP and Assistant Education Minister Anne-Marie Trevelyan and Minister of State for Brexit Suella Braverman also resigned.

All of them explained their resignations with dissatisfaction and concern over the Prime Minister's draft Brexit agreement, reports Reuters.

Braverman wrote on Twitter that she could not honestly support the deal that the cabinet adopted and that the proposed solution for Northern Ireland was not what the British people voted for and that there was a threat that Northern Ireland would secede from the United Kingdom.

In a letter to Theresa May, McVeigh stated that the agreement she presented to the cabinet yesterday does not respect the result of the referendum and that the agreement means that "Britain will give the EU 39 billion pounds and get nothing in return."

May announced last night that, after a five-hour meeting, she had secured the government's support for the agreement.

The BBC reports that some ministers opposed the agreement.

The European Commission and Great Britain reached an agreement on Wednesday on the terms of Article 50 relating to the Withdrawal Agreement, the European Commission announced.

President of the European Council Donald Tusk announced that an extraordinary summit of the European Union will be held on Sunday, where the agreement on the exit of Great Britain from the Union will be finalized and formalized.
