(Picture: PA Wire)Boris Johnson is battling to stay in No10 after at least 54 Conservative MPs triggered a crunch vote on whether he should remain as Prime Minister.
Graham Brady, chairman of the 1922 Conservative committee of backbenchers, confirmed on Monday morning that more than 15 per cent of Tory parliamentarians had sent in letters of no confidence in the Prime Minister, triggering the vote between 6pm and 8pm.
