Ms May announced on Friday that she will quit as the leader of the ruling Conservative Party and Prime Minister on June 7. She has been battling hard to get the British parliament to agree to her B rexit deal for the UK to quit the European Union. She said she had “done my best” to honour the 2016 EU referendum result where Britons voted to leave the EU. She said it would remain a matter of “deep regret” that she had been unable to deliver Brexit. Ms May added that it was “in the best interests of the country” to get a new prime minister.
