When is PMQs today? How to watch Boris Johnson responds to resignations

When is PMQs today? How to watch as Boris Johnson receives further resignations. (PA)

Boris Johnson will face a double round of questioning in what will be a tough day for the Prime Minister with both Prime Minister's Questions and the parliamentary Liaison Committee scheduled for Wednesday.

It comes as Johnson struggles to maintain a grip on power in No 10 as ministers and aides continue to quit his Government in protest at his leadership.

On Wednesday, Will Quince resigned as children and families minister, saying he could not accept being sent out to defend the Prime Minister on television with inaccurate information over the Christ Pincher row.

Laura Trott quit as a ministerial aide, saying “trust in politics is – and must always be – of the utmost importance, but sadly in recent months this has been lost”.

Their resignations on Wednesday morning followed a string of departures from the Government on Tuesday evening, led by Rishi Sunak and Sajid Javid who delivered broadsides at Mr Johnson as they quit their Cabinet posts.

What time does PMQs start today?

Prime Minister's questions will start at its usual time of 12pm and is expected to run for around half an hour.
