Statement by An Taoiseach on the resignation of British Prime Minister Theresa May

I got to know Theresa May very well over the last two years. She is principled, honourable, and deeply passionate about doing her best for her country, and her party. Politicians throughout the EU have admired her tenacity, her courage, and her determination during what has been a difficult and challenging time.

Theresa May strove to chart a new future for the United Kingdom. I want to wish her the very best for the future.

And I look forward to working closely with her successor.
