From London

The resignation of the British ambbadador to Washington, Sir Kim Darroch, clearly showed who had the upper hand. The irascible determination of President Donald Trump
and the international weakness of a country on the verge of leaving the European Union (EU) sealed the fate of Darroch, a diplomat at the end of a 42-year career.

The former British ambbadador had stated in his internal messages in London that the Trump government was "Inept, clumsy, dysfunctional and unpredictable". Trump's reaction was relentless in the crescendo. Yesterday he went to fetch the jugular on his favorite communication channel, Twitter, when he described Darroch as "Crazy, very stupid and pompous" that he should deal more with Theresa May and "her failure of negotiations on Brexit".

When it appeared that the United States had withdrawn the invitation to an official dinner on Tuesday, the point of no return was reached, as Darroch himself acknowledged. "Since filtering these documents from the Embbady, ​​a lot of speculation has been made about my continuity in the post. The current situation does not allow me to exercise my role as I would like, "he wrote in his resignation letter.. British police investigate the origin of the leak, in the uncertain and paranoid world of Brexit, many attribute it to a black hand, both pro and anti-Brexit.

This announcement coincided with the weekly confrontation of the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition in the House of Commons, a very British event known as the "Prime Minister-Questions Time" (PMQT). The union leader Jeremy Corbyn regretted the resignation and noted that Trump's comments were inexcusable. Theresa May veiled Boris Johnson, one of his possible successors, his former chancellor and former mayor of London. "A government depends on the advice of its officials, I want them to know that they have our full support, and I hope that the House will understand the importance of upholding our values ​​and principles." "said May.

In a televised debate last night between the two leading candidates to succeed him, Boris Johnson repeatedly refused to support Darroch. On the 22nd of this month, the Conservative Party will announce the result of the election of a new leader who will automatically become prime minister as the party's representative with the largest number of members in the House of Commons. Boris Johnson is apparently the favorite of conservative members and the unequivocal favorite of Donald Trump.

Trump has never failed to comment on British politics and in particular the everlasting odyssey of Brexit, the UK's next departure from the European Union. On more than one occasion, he expressed his public admiration for Johnson. His cabinet and ambbadador were more measured in their interventions in the United Kingdom, a moderation that did not save money in Latin America, as we see openly with Venezuela.

In the House of Commons, many opposition members and several well-known Conservatives have condemned Johnson's silence. Secretary of State Chancery, conservative Sir Alan Duncan, described as "despicable negligence" his lack of support for Darroch. "I can not believe what's going on." Boris Johnson, a former Chancellor who wants to be our future Prime Minister, threw this fantastic diplomat under the bus to serve his own interests, "said Alan Duncan (" you've thrown this fantastic diplomat under the bus ").

In the midst of the controversy, British Trade Minister Liam Fox had to sigh with relief as he went through the crisis during an official visit to the United States. The UK's departure date from the European Union is 31 October. Fox is trying to develop a post-Brexit strategy that includes a controversial free trade deal with Washington. Among his talks, one of them is taking place today with Ivanka Trump, daughter and adviser to the president.

Sir Mick Jagger, who was with the Rolling Stones in Mbadachusets, took the opportunity
a Trump "blunder" on July 4th to attack him. With reference to the

British could not protect their airports, maybe things would have
finished in another way. "
