Rishi Sunak has said he is resigning as Chancellor, shortly after Cabinet colleague Health Secretary Sajid Javid’s resignation announcement. Mr Sunak wrote on Twitter: “The public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously.
“I recognise this may be my last ministerial job, but I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning”.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, Health Secretary Sajid Javid told Boris Johnson that the British people “rightly expect integrity from their Government”. He wrote: “The tone you set as leader, and the values you represent, reflect on your colleagues, your party and ultimately the country.
