Here are 17 ministers who have resigned from Theresa May's government

It has been a difficult year for Theresa May. Indeed, the general elections of 2017 did not take place as planned, it was hit by a series of political tidal wave, including resignation after resignation.

Yet the prime minister has managed to cling to power, despite the loss of more than one minister per month on average since voters went to the polls 16 months ago.

In comparison, during his second term in government from May 2015 to July 2016, May's predecessor, David Cameron, lost only one member of his team – unless he counts himself of course.

Iain Duncan Smith left the firm in March 2016, claiming that he was unable to accept the planned reductions in disability benefits.

Baker was a member of Parliament for Davis in the Brexit Department and resigned shortly thereafter on July 8, 2018.

He claimed that it was because his department had been left out when creating the Checkers agreement and that he and Davis had been "caught off guard by this policy".

14. Boris Johnson

After the departure of Davis and Baker, everyone expected that Johnson would do the same and resign from his post as Foreign Minister – what he did the next day, July 9, 2018 .

It was expected that such an important departure at the time would lead to a serious rethink of the game of checkers, or even the overthrow of May's government, but neither of the two scenarios emerged.

Mr. Griffiths resigned as Minister of Small Business a few days after the resignation of Checkers on July 13, 2018.

Crouch waged a fierce campaign on the subject and, when she discovered that it had been postponed until October 2019 instead of April, she chose to walk.

Honorable Mention: Lord Bates

International Development Minister Lord Bates attempted to resign after being late for a debate in the House of Lords in January.

He said at the time that he "was ashamed of not being in my place" while he should have answered questions, and then walked out of the hall when his colleagues shouted: "No!

However, No. 10 refused to accept his resignation and he still carries out his duties.
