The prime minister’s departure announcement came the day after Britons voted in European parliamentary elections.
Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May makes a statement outside 10 Downing Street in London on May 24.
. Results were not due until Sunday when voting is completed across the 28-nation bloc, but May's Conservatives faced a likely trouncing at the hands of a new Brexit party whose sole aim is to finalize Britain’s divorce from the EU. During the divisive Brexit campaign, May was in the “remain” camp — those who wanted to stay in the EU — but her support was tepid enough that it was not seen as disqualifying when her Conservative party vowed to bring the voter-mandated split with Europe to fruition.
The prime minister’s departure will trigger a fierce party leadership contest in which any Conservative lawmaker can run. The early front-runner is Johnson, but there are an array of potential contenders, including Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt and Home Secretary Sajid Javid.
