  • Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications
    Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications Jessica R. Adolino, Ph. D. Professor of Political Science James Madison University Draft prepared for presentation at the European Studies Association Annual Meeting May 9-12, 2019, Denver, Colorado Please do not cite or distribute without author’s permission. By almost any measure, since the immediate aftermath of the June 16, 2016 Brexit referendum, the British government has been in a state of chaos. The turmoil began with then- Prime Minister David Cameron’s resignation on June 17 and succession by Theresa May within days of the vote. Subsequently, May’s decision to call a snap election in 2017 and the resulting loss of the Conservatives’ parliamentary majority cast doubt on her leadership and further stirred up dissension in her party’s ranks. Perhaps more telling, and the subject of this paper, is the unprecedented number of ministers1—from both senior and junior ranks—that quit the May government over Brexit-related policy disagreements2. Between June 12, 2017 and April 3, 2019, the government witnessed 45 resignations, with high-profile secretaries of state and departmental ministers stepping down to return to the backbenches. Of these, 34 members of her government, including 9 serving in the Cabinet, departed over issues with some aspect of Brexit, ranging from dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister’s Withdrawal Agreement, to disagreements about the proper role of Parliament, to questions about the legitimacy of the entire Brexit process. All told, Theresa May lost more ministers, and at a more rapid pace, than any other prime minister in modern times.

The syndrome is estimated to effect up to 35,000 people in the UK. These conditions affect health and quality of life from birth through infancy and childhood into adult life with over 180 physical, functional and psychological associations reported. The complexity of 22q11 frequently leads to clinical confusion and a delay in diagnosis often by years. The event is being hosted by Jack Lopresti, MP who recently set up an APPG to raise awareness of this medical condition after meeting one of his constituents who has a daughter with the condition. The other officers of the group are Nigel Adams MP, Paul Uppal MP and long-time supporter of Max Appeal, Margot James MP. Materials for the event Four posters highlighting some families who are members of the charity Max Appeal and showing the growth charts specific to 22q11DS.
