Responding to the raft of resignations from Mrs May’s Cabinet, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Vince Cable said:

The Government started Britain on a journey with no actual idea of their route or their destination. The Conservative Government is in meltdown and it’s clear the Conservatives are now driving the country off a cliff.

The Tories are finally realising what we have always known. There is no way to prevent Brexit from leaving our country worse off.

A People’s Vote on the final Brexit deal, where the people can choose between deal, no deal or to remain in the EU, is the only route out of this uncertainty. It is time people had the power to end this mess.
