LONDON - British Finance Minister Philip Hammond said on Sunday he would make a point of resigning before Mr Boris Johnson became prime minister, saying he could never agree to his Brexit strategy.

Mr Hammond has become an increasingly fierce critic of Mr Johnson's Brexit strategy - leaving the European Union with or without a deal on Oct 31 - and would never have expected to remain as chancellor of the Exchequer in a Johnson government. "I'm sure I'm not going to be sacked because I'm going to resign before we get to that point," Mr Hammond told BBC television.

Mrs May will head to Buckingham Palace in London on Wednesday to see Queen Elizabeth II, the head of state, and relinquish her office.
