It has been a great honour to serve as Brexit Secretary. With @DExEUgov having delivered its purpose and our departure from the EU secure, I wrote to PM @borisjohnson to resign formally at 11.01pm
Fresh from backing a new train fleet for Metro, Cabinet ministers @grantshapps@SteveBarclay and Geoffrey Cox used the service to get to the Cabinet meeting in Sunderland today #BrexitDay
It’s now time to move forward & forge an exciting new 🇬🇧🇪🇺 partnership as sovereign equals.

BREAKING NEWS: The European Parliament have approved the Withdrawal Agreement, Brexit will soon be international law as well as UK law. We're leaving 🇪🇺 on Friday.
Great to sign the EEA EFTA agreement and guarantee the rights of @NorwayMFA, @MFAIceland and @MFA_LI's citizens in the UK, and our citizens in their countries, after we leave the EU on January 31st.
This coin marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in British history. Let’s look forward with confidence & unleash the enormous potential of our great country. https://t.co/QNpEDHDutz

We're leaving 🇪🇺 on Friday. Then we'll be free to unleash the enormous potential of the British people.
