LONDON - A senior British diplomat in Washington has resigned, saying she did not want to “peddle half-truths” over Brexit for a government she did not trust, CNN reported on Friday.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservatives have said they will deliver Brexit by the end of January, while the opposition Labour Party, who are trailing in the polls, plans to renegotiate the exit deal and put it to another referendum. “It makes our job to promote democracy and the rule of law that much harder, if we are not seen to be upholding these core values at home.”

Asked during a televised election debate whether it worried him that a leading British diplomat had made such comments, Johnson said: “I don’t know who you’re referring to.”
