On Wednesday 14th of November, in the evening, UK Prime Minister Theresa May announced that she had the guaranteed support of her cabinet concerning the agreement reached between the EU and the UK. Nevertheless, Dominic Raab, the UK Brexit Secretary, resigned as he doesn’t support the draft agreement that plans the conditions of UK’s exit. This resignation follows the one of his predecessor, David Davis, who also quit in protest of Theresay May’s plans for Brexit. Moreover, reports suggest that Raab is not the only one unhappy with the deal and that other senior ministers in the cabinet don’t back it. The UK Parliament should vote on the withdrawal deal in December.
