A UK minister has resigned saying a row over involvement in the EU's Galileo satellite-navigation system exposes Theresa May's Brexit deal as "naive".
The UK had wanted to stay part of Galileo after Brexit, but the EU said it would be banned from the extra-secure elements of the programme. Mrs May confirmed on Friday that the UK was pulling out of the project. Science minister Sam Gyimah said it was "a clarion call" and that any deal with Brussels would be "EU first".
The UK's interests "will be repeatedly and permanently hammered by the EU27 for many years to come", he added in a Facebook post setting out his reasons for resigning. He also said he would be voting against Mrs May's deal.
Former Tory cabinet minister and campaigner for the People's Vote, Justine Greening, said Mr Gyimah was a "highly respected and capable minister" and praised him for not ruling out a second vote.
And the Lib Dem's education spokeswoman, Layla Moran, said Mr Gyimah's exit showed the government was "falling apart", and that he had "seen at close quarters the devastating effect this botched Brexit will have on these important sectors".

What a joke, Teresa May.
Go fill your pockets now
With tomorrow’s landfill
The Lions and Unicorns
Are sleeping out in shop doors
Outside dreamland
Glassy eyed demography
The smell of cut grass
The swallows are returning
[Post-Chorus]
And it look’s like they’ve come to rest
[Verse 3]
Bring me my shell box and my submachine gun
Because you can’t get over anything quite like this

And where do I go now?
And where does it seem to be free?
Where do I go now?
Where will you carry me?

The Elite want to keep their red meat.
Just F’n QUIT, and act like a Country!
The FT also said Clark was taking legal advice on reclaiming the 1.4 billion euros Britain has invested in Galileo since the project started in 2003.
I bet the Euroweenies don't want to give the money back...:^)
