UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson to quit after dozens of ministers resign over his conduct

Boris Johnson will step down as Prime Minister due to a series of scandals.

Several dozen Conservative MPs quit the government after Johnson resigned.

A senior government source told Insider he is quitting as leader of the Conservative Party but remains Prime Minister until a new leader is found. The chair of the 1922 committee was agreed with.

Cabinet ministers, including the newly promoted ministers, gathered to tell Johnson he had to go.

The man brought in to replace Sunak published a letter telling Johnson to leave.

The Cabinet minister used the Treasury-headed paper to confirm that he was one of the senior Conservatives who told Johnson to quit.

He hasn't listened to me. The Prime Minister knows what the right thing to do is.

Johnson's government was left to more than 50 after another wave of resignations.

The education secretary resigned after 36 hours. Ben Wallace said he would stay as Defence Secretary due to the safety of the UK.

Chris Pincher, the deputy chief whip, was accused of drunkenly groped two men in a private members' club.

Johnson claimed that he didn't know about the allegations when he gave him the job. He did not tell the truth in public.

Some people quit because of a loss of trust in the government and in Johnson.

In April, Johnson became the first sitting prime minister to be found to have broken the law after he received a fine from the Metropolitan Police for attending an illegal gathering.

The gathering to mark his birthday was one of a number of breaking events in the "Partygate" scandal. There were details of vomiting, fighting, and a child's swing being broken in parties at the heart of government in a report by Gray.

42% of his own MPs voted to remove him from office in a vote of no confidence.

Johnson received money from a Conservative Party donor to redecorate his apartment.
