British Prime Minister Theresa May could announce her resignation in the next few days, according to U.K. media reports.

May has faced a backlash over the last 48 hours after she announced a “new” Brexit plan.

Multiple reports suggest the prime minister will announce her departure on Friday, after polls close in the European elections.

Andrea Leadsom quit as Commons Leader, saying she could not announce the bill which had “new elements that I fundamentally oppose”.

She has been replaced by Treasury minister Mel Stride.

The prime minister had intended for her government to bring forward her Withdrawal Agreement Bill on Thursday, as voters went to the polls in the European elections.
