Sajid Javid has said he resigned after concluding “enough is enough” of Boris Johnson’s Downing Street operation.
The former Tory Health Secretary told the Commons he had given the Prime Minister the benefit of the doubt on partygate, but added “I do fear that the reset button can only work so many times”.
In a devastating speech, designed to undermine the Prime Minister without destroying him completely, Javid aimed to shake down the remaining support for Johnson on the Tory benches.
