The former Mayor of Londons resignation followed that of David Davis, who had been Secretary of State at the newly-created Department for Exiting the European Union and was at least nominally in charge of the negotiations with the EU.
Davis felt he could not defend the ultra-soft Brexit vision imposed by May at a Cabinet away day in the prime ministerial estate of Chequers, as it left Brussels and its courts with far too much power over Britains laws, regulations, and trade policy.
While the Brexit Secretary was firm but measured in his public statements, Johnsons letter is an astonishing and direct attack on the Prime Minister, of a type which has not been seen from a senior minister in at least a generation.

Correct. Most lefties are useful idiots or are totally insane.
100 years ago, Britain sacrificed their best to defend Belgium from subjugation to Germany.
Now they sacrificed everyone to be subjugated to Germany via Brussels.
Very Ironic.
Headshake.
Glad I’m not a subject.

England is itself a colony of its former colonies and will in turn be an EU colony. They may fulfill some form of Brexit, but their native population is fading into the sunset.
“I say give P.R. to the Cubans. Talked to too many PRs who admire Cuban culture & think Fidel Castro got a raw deal from los yanquis. Fueran todos!”
Here in Florida (Tampa area) I’ve learned from Cuban friends that there is a pecking order in the local Latino community - they are certainly not one homogeneous block.
On top are the Cubans, especially the ones born here, or that arrived shortly after Castro’s takeover.
On the bottom are the Puerto Ricans. Cubans despise the Puerto Ricans. They don’t think highly of Mexicans either. South American Latinos are OK.
But I’m sure if I had any PR friends, they’d probably tell me they don’t care for Cubans either.
Time to start a campaign portraying May as a modern day Neville Chamberlain, and demanding her ouster.
Hey Boris, where were your balls when it mattered?
What would be hilarious would be for Trump to spurn visiting May, and have talks with Boris Johnson instead.
Boris Johnson is exactly right and he needs to be the next PM else Great Britain is lost.
Hilarious and WISE. Would send a heck of a signal of no confidence in May and that the special relationship between the UK and US is in trouble with May at the helm.
“Would somebody PLEASE take Puerto Rico off our hands?”
I offered to buy the parachute jump in Coney Island, but they said I would also have to take Puerto Rico and Time Magazine. Together it’s a dollar, but I will have to physically remove the parachute jump from the premises.

how can people put up with leaders who do the exact opposite of what the people vote for and still call it democracy...
Okay, you get the big trencher and I'll take care of the towboat ... what do you think? About a mile of ocean separation?
Far worse than Neville Chamberlain, Benedict Arnold.
Chamberlain was ignorant, B. Arnold was a traitor for money.
The bought POLs do it for the money.
I love British history, have visited the British Isles, and enjoyed seeing the historic sites. Sadly though, the nation has been on a self-destruct course for a very long time. Whatever plagues occur in the future, are of their own doing, and I cannot have any sympathy for those who have let it happen.
May seems to believe she can oroceed under the current circumstances. Would she darw do this without the support of the queen?
If not then the queen must be viewed as u friendly to trump and the concept of sovereign nation states.
Not sure about the Queen. I hear she is beginning to have health issues. Possibly someone else is influencing her.
