Prime Minister Theresa May will be stepping down as Leader of the Conservative Party on June 7th.

May made the announcement outside Number 10 on May 24th, delivering an emotionally powered speech.


This comes after several unsuccessful attempts to gain the support of the MPs regarding her Brexit deal.

"I have done everything I can to convince MPs to back that deal," she says to the assembled press.

"Sadly I have not been able to do so. I tried three times."
"But it is now clear to me that it is in the best interest of the country for a new Prime Minister to lead that effort."

May continued:

"It is, and will always remain, a matter of deep regret to me that I have not been able to deliver Brexit. It will be for my successor to seek a way forward that honors the result of the referendum."

As her speech went on, May became more tearful. She ended her speech, stating that she had "no ill will, and only gratitude" regarding her time as Prime Minister.

Obviously, it immediately became a meme.

Twitter is abuzz with the hashtag #Trexit, sharing opinions and making jokes at May's expense.









This Twitter user clearly found the hashtag's play-on-words hilarious.

One even already showed support for a new (and already better) Prime Minster.

May is officially resigning on June 7th, but don't worry, there are sure to be plenty of memes to keep you entertained in the meantime. After all, isn't that what social media is for?

The process to elect a new Prime Minister will begin shortly after May's resignation. We already know who we'd vote for.

Yes, it's the cat.

Jimmy Kimmel And Stephen Colbert Unload On Trump In Rare Crossover Event As Guests On Each Other's Shows

Late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert were each other's guests in a special crossover event on Tuesday and took the opportunity to call out "son of a b*tch" President Donald Trump, who has used his influence in attempts to silence them for criticizing him and his MAGA movement on the air.

Last week, ABC announced it would end its suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live! just a week after Trump pushed to get host Jimmy Kimmel off the air following comments Kimmel made about the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk. ABC had had internal discussions with Disney, which saw a wave of subscriber cancellations in the wake of Kimmel's suspension.

Ted Cruz Clashes With 'Crazy' MTG Over Her Cryptic Post Alluding That 'The Jews' Are Trying To Kill Her

Texas MAGA Republican Senator Rafael "Ted" Cruz raised eyebrows when he attacked Georgia QAnon/MAGA Republican Representative and conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) for being antisemitic.

MTG has promoted some antisemitic conspiracy theories in the past, like Jewish space lasers that control the weather or start wildfires, but this time people are calling Cruz out for reaching in an attempt to discredit the Georgia Republican and protect Trump from what's being concealed in FBI, Department of Justice, and court records relating to the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein on charges of sex trafficking of minors.
