Boris Johnson: May bidding farewell before new PM takes office
Theresa May is delivering a farewell speech in Downing Street shortly before tendering her resignation to the Queen.
Earlier, she faced MPs' questions for the final time before Boris Johnson becomes prime minister.
Watched by her husband Philip, she looked visibly emotional as she left the Commons to a round of applause.
Mr Johnson will speak outside No 10 too, before announcing several senior cabinet appointments - sources say his top team will reflect "modern Britain".
He is expected to use the opportunity to increase the number of women in full cabinet positions and boost the representation of ethnic minorities.
