Boris Johnson Faces Growing Pressure to Resign

“The threat to Boris Johnson’s leadership has ramped up today as more Conservative MPs said they have submitted letters of no confidence in the PM,” Sky News reports.

Reuters: “To trigger a leadership challenge, 54 of the 360 Conservative MPs in parliament must write letters of no confidence to the chairman of the party’s 1922 Committee.”

Times of London: “The irony will not be lost on Boris Johnson that the greatest threat to his leadership now comes from the MPs who owe him their political careers. That threat should not be underestimated.”
