British PM May forces her own deputy to resign after pornography scandal


LONDON: British Prime Minister Theresa May forced her most senior minister, Damian Green, to resign on Thursday after an internal investigation found that he had made misleading comments about pornography found on computers in his parliamentary office. Green, 61, added that he did not download or view pornography on his parliamentary computers. He is May’s third cabinet minister to resign in recent weeks after May’s defence secretary quit in November citing past conduct that fell below the required standards. One of his key roles was to act as a conduit for disgruntled party members who felt they had been ignored in May’s election campaign. In the statements he had suggested he was not aware that indecent material was found on parliamentary computers in his office.
