A group of cabinet ministers are about to tell the PM to resign, including the chief whip, the BBC understands.
Welsh Secretary Simon Hart is one of them. He made it clear to No 10 yesterday that it was “game over” but it shouldn’t have to come by ministerial resignations.
The Transport Secretary Grant Shapps is also part of the delegation.

It’s a bit late in the day for developing a sense of duty. What’s next, is he going to grasp the concept of following rules? Where on Earth will it end?

Nadhim Zahawi, who only yesterday accepted the role of chancellor after Rishi Sunak resigned, is among the delegation that is set to tell Boris Johnson to resign, the BBC understands.

Everyone is in it for themselves. While this may be a very unusual day, I still don’t have any faith in any “leader” that may be appointed.

It is, indeed, a very unusual day … and not over yet … 
No change in the rules by the 1922 Committee to call another vote of no confidence…

I think he’ll be shoved…he practically has no cabinet left, and the ones who are left - what can they do. The man has no honour, no integrity
He has already been asked to go by David Davis. What part does he not understand.

Had the Parliamentary channel on all afternoon (change from Wimbledon!) And today’s shenanigans reminded me SO MUCH of the time Ernie (plumber) was working in the downstairs cloakroom and I was cooking in the kitchen.
He had his radio on…all of a sudden he shouted, “Kettle on Mrs R, she’s gone!!!”
Thatcher had just been driven off from No.10. What a day to remember!
