Health Minister Sajid Javid has said he no longer has confidence in the Prime Minister after a series of scandals that have tainted the government.
In his resignation letter posted on Twitter, he says it “is clear to me that the situation is not going to change under your leadership – and therefore you have lost my trust”.
Minutes later, Finance Minister Rishi Sunak also announced his departure.
“The public rightfully expects the government to be conducted competently and seriously,” he said in a resignation letter posted on Twitter.
