Former British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has attacked the government's Chequers plan for the UK's future relationship with the EU, during a resignation statement in the House of Commons. Johnson said that "a fog of self-doubt" had descended since the Prime Minister first outlined her vision of the post-Brexit future in her Lancaster House speech in January 2017, and that the country was now "volunteering for economic vassalage".
