British Education Minister, Michelle Donelan, has resigned from her position, just two days after her appointment.
Gatekeepers News reports that Donelan announced her decision to quit on Thursday saying prime minister Boris Johnson had put her in “an impossible situation”.
“I see no way that you can continue in post, but without a formal mechanism to remove you it seems that the only way that this is… possible is for those of us who remain in Cabinet to force your hand,” Donelan wrote in a resignation letter, saying she had “pleaded” with Johnson on Wednesday to resign.
“You have put us in an impossible situation… as someone who values integrity above all else, I have no choice.”
Meanwhile, Johnson is expected to put an end to the unprecedented political crisis over his future that has paralyzed Britain’s government, by resigning today (Thursday).
