Boris Johnson is taking the Tory party into a “very ugly place” and should resign, according to a senior Conservative MP who has revealed that he no longer has confidence in the Prime Minister.
Senior Conservative MP Tobias Ellwood said Johnson has lost his support and he will be submitting a letter of no confidence to the 1922 Committee.
In a fresh blow to Johnson, the chair of the Defence Select Committee, said the partygate scandal left Tory MPs in a “horrible position” of having to defend Johnson’s rulebreaking.
