BREAKING: Allegra Stratton is resigning.
In tears Allegra Stratton tells broadcasters outside her home “The British people have made immense sacrifices… I now fear my comments have become a distraction in that fight. My remarks seemed to make light of the rules. That was never my intention.”
“I will regret those remarks for the rest of my days… To all of those who lost loved ones, I am truly sorry. And this afternoon I am offering my resignation to the Prime Minister.”
That appeared to be a very heartfelt and sincere apology from Allegra Stratton, showing genuine regret. Her tone starkly contrasts with statements from others in recent days. Many feel it would be unfair for her to take sole responsibility.
