In the turmoil of Boris Johnson's dramatic resignation this morning, Sajid Javid has 7/1 odds to become the next Prime Minister. Featuring in multiple cabinets, the freshly-resigned health secretary has been a big name in Westminster for years.
Yesterday, July 6, Sajid Javid was among the heavy-hitters who handed in his resignation as Secretary of State for Health and Social Care. He followed his resignation letter with a blistering speech in the House of Commons, calling on Boris Johnson to go.
But how could the Rochdale -born MP ascend to take the top job at Number 10?
