TEARFUL Theresa May today finally admitted her time was up and quit as Prime Minister insisting: "I've done my best".
The PM was forced to resign after she failed to deliver Brexit and lost the support of her own MPs - but will continue in office as a lame duck until July.
Shortly after meeting Tory "executioner" Sir Graham Brady, she addressed the nation in the spring sunshine of Downing Street - watched by adoring husband Philip - and admitted her time is up.
The PM confessed she now has no chance of ever getting her Brexit deal through Parliament but insisted "I have done my best" to deliver on the referendum result.

Years of practice.
The only way to end constant attacks for mooselimb terrorists, is the 'final solution' as brutal as that will be.
All mooselimbs must be killed or renounce the parts of the koran that call for sharia law.
If a mooselimb says that the koran is the final law, then all non-mooselimbs must be killed, so what are our options?
“Oh yes, because that automatically means success.”
No it doesn’t, but the historical record of the last thousands of years shows that the CHANCES of success are dramatically improved.
Actually that could be argued to the negative.
Seems the few times women were in power, they were unbelievably successful.
Meanwhile, the last 30 years of British PM - all men between Maggie and May (lol) - has been dismal.
Not a very good record to use, either way.
If she’d done her job to take the UK out of the EU, she wouldn’t be crying now.
I thought the British people had voted for Brexit like a couple of years ago. Why was it never implemented?
The British Deep State.
They ain't leavin' on their own, and they ain't gonn'a give up no American bennies, so ........
BOL!
Now someone will have to decode your reply!:)
You’ve mentioned a few outliers on the female side, and I’m sure there are many more oh, but that’s what they are outliers.
The historical record is pretty hard to argue with.
Did her best to block the will of the people.
Now she can spend more time with her children and grandchildren.
what?
Obviously they were really watching a football (soccer) match.
They say Boris is a lock to win the vote of party members IF he is selected by MPs as one of the final two candidates, which he may not be.
The idea choice would be Jacob Rees-Mogg, IMO. Apparently he's not interested though. Disappointing. We need an ACTUAL conservative there. The so-called UK "Conservative" Party really hasn't had one since Thatcher. Cameron and May differed little from say, a center-left RAT like Harold Ford, Bill Nelson, Evan Bayh, etc.
Ironically the one big issue I'd diagree with Mogg on is that he endorsed Johnson!
They did a good job.
It depends. The UK has time until October 31 to decide or even ask on October 31 for a further extension.
They can leave earlier with or without a deal, they can cancel brexit, they can have a no-deal
And even if they ask for an extension, they can be refused
Too many variables.
Anything is possible - no matter WHO becomes the next PM
In my opinion there is still the possibility of Article 50 being withdrawn as well. The possibility note - because literally anything is possible now
Note that it was not made a binding referendum by the person who called it - the British PM of that time.
It was agreed to call for ARticle 50 in December of that year and on March 2017 Theresa called on Article 50, giving the UK 2 years to leave the EU. She called without preparing. THAT was and is unforgivable. But to give her SOME credit, no one else was prepared - not Boris, not Farage, not Corbyn.
The UK didn't have a plan, didn't have a clue, didn't prepare, nothing
Here is a picture of David Davis, the UK chief negotiator starting his negotiations with the EU
Note that UK side is not prepared. They were not. Even into 2019 the MPs had no clue. They had a training in Feb 2019 (yes, THIS year) on what a Customs union entails). Can you believe that? Entering into negotiations unprepared?
That's why Brexit failed - no plan from anyone - not May, not Boris, nor Corbyn nor Farage.
May's personality exacerbated it, but no one else could have saved it.
The UK and US are different
The UK negotiators didn’t get an agreement from parliament before negotiating. The EU negotiators got agreements from 27 parliaments before negotiating.
So when the November 2018 agreement was made, the 27 other countries agreed but the UK parliament rejected because it was all new to the UK parliament and MPs
But there was little leeway even for the EU.
The UK wanted the same deal as a non-member as it had had as a member. That’s not possible.
The EU offered different alternatives and even said that the only option for May’s red lines was no-deal.
The Brexiteers like Farage, Johnson etc. believed that they could still “win” with no clue on how to
