Labour MP Chris Bryant sends a simple message to Tory MPs: Boot out Boris Johnson and elect a 'proper Prime Minister' before the Summer Recess. ShelaghFogarty | RhonddaBryant
Boris Johnson has announced his resignation as the leader of the Conservative Party after a monumental week of rebellion from his own Cabinet.
Former Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid opened the floodgates with their resignations on Tuesday, leading to over half of Boris Johnson's Cabinet resigning before the PM eventually stepped down as Conservative leader."He hasn't resigned so far as I can see" Labour MP Chris Bryant stated, reminding Shelagh Fogarty that Mr Johnson is still PM even after resigning as Tory leader.
"He's always boasted how he doesn't abide by the rules, I wouldn't be surprised if he spends the next three months – if he's allowed three months, trying to stay in office." The chair of the Committee on Standards called on his Conservative colleagues "to take much more decisive action", stating that "he can't be allowed to stay on until October, November as some Tory MPs have been saying".
