英國首相梅伊於今日(6月7日)辭職(resign)。
英國首相梅伊在執政三年後遞出辭呈,結束了這位英國史上第二位女性首相 (Prime Minister)的任期 (course) 。在遲遲無法與歐盟達成脫歐 (Brexit)共識下,梅伊在首相府唐寧街10號發表演說,指出現在是最適合的時候讓一個新的領導人來帶領這個國家。
反對黨 (opposite party)工黨 (Labour Party)也提出質疑認為讓保守黨 (Conservative Party)繼續這樣把國家大事當作為兒戲只是在逃避現實而已,而且是三年前大家就已經知道的現實。

「successor opposite」的推薦目錄:
successor opposite 在 Ken Hunts Food Facebook 八卦
The successor to Sea Palace at Pekaka Square is Wu Jia Chinese Restaurant 吾家大酒楼, a Chinese food operator previously running its businesses opposite Pekaka Square but has since taken over the spot. Minor upgrade was done to give the place a fresher look. Like most Chinese restaurants, Wu Jia offers a big Chinese menu... featuring all sorts of stir fry dishes, stews etc. There is not anything special about the menu but the fully air-conditioned restaurant has a very spacious setting, making it ideal for family eat outs or any form of gathering over classic Chinese food. However, the price points are of restaurant-standard so don't expect to get a budget meal out of here.
Curry Prawn with Bun (Rm 40/ small)
Yellow Wine Herbal Chicken Soup (Rm 20/ small)
Steamed Three Type-Egg (Rm 15/ small)
Stir Fried Hong Kong Kai Lan (Rm 18/ small)
Stir Fried Hor Fun with Gravy (Rm 15/ small)
