Reacting to news that the Chancellor and the Health Secretary have resigned, Portsmouth South MP, Stephen Morgan, said:
“The writing is now on the wall for Mr Johnson. After dragging their heels for months on end, two of some of the Prime Minister’s most senior Cabinet colleagues have finally resigned.
“This Prime Minister should be focused on tackling the cost of living crisis, not having to manage political distractions because of the vacuum of leadership he’s created.
“It’s now time for local Tory MPs to follow suit and put an end to this rudderless, morally bankrupt government that has utterly failed Portsmouth and the country.”
