British Prime Minister Theresa May has said she will quit as Conservative Party leader on June 7, paving the way for a contest to decide a new prime minister, reports the BBC.
In an emotional statement, she said she had done her best to deliver Brexit and it was a matter of “deep regret” that she had been unable to do so.
Being prime minister had been the “honour of my life”, she said.
Mrs May said she would continue to serve as PM while a Conservative leadership contest takes place.
It means she will still be prime minister when US President Donald Trump arrives in the UK on a state visit at the start of June.
