More Nottinghamshire MPs have called on the Prime Minister Boris Johnson to consider his position. Gedling Conservative MP Tom Randall withdrew his support as Mr Johnson's leadership crumbles, while former minister and Newark MP Robert Jenrick also called on the PM to go.
Calls for the Prime Minister to resign have stepped up after two of his Cabinet members and several other junior ministers stood down. Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid both resigned within minutes of each other last night (Tuesday, July 5) amid the latest Conservative Party scandal.
The Prime Minister admitted appointing Chris Pincher as deputy chief whip was a mistake after it was claimed he knew about allegations of sexual misconduct before he was given the role. The resignations of the two senior cabinet ministers adds to pressure on Mr Johnson.
