Chancellor Rishi Sunak and health secretary Sajid Javid resigned from Boris Johnson’s government on Tuesday as a row over the UK prime minister’s honesty intensified.
In separate letters to Johnson, both ministers criticised the prime ministers conduct.
Sunak wrote: “The public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously . . . I recognise this may be my last ministerial job, but I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning.”
In his letter to Johnson, Javid wrote “the vote of confidence last month showed that a large number of our colleagues agree. It was a moment for humility, grip and new direction. I regret to say, however, that it is clear to me that this situation will not change under your leadership.”
