LONDON: British finance minister Philip Hammond said on Sunday that he would resign if Boris Johnson became prime minister because he felt unable to support a leader happy to take the country out of the European Union without a deal.
Johnson has said he would ramp up preparations for a no deal to try to force the EU's negotiators to make changes to the agreement that Prime Minister Theresa May sealed with Brussels and UK lawmakers voted down three times. That stance means several more ministers who want to leave with a deal may seek to quit before facing the prospect of being sacked by Johnson.
"I want to work with all those MPs who, like me, want to ensure parliament can stop a disastrous no-deal exit," Starmer said. But the EU has so far been steadfast in its view that it cannot open the withdrawal agreement, and Irish Foreign Minister Simon Coveney said both sides would be"in trouble" if the new prime minister was intent on tearing up the deal.
