MORE than a dozen ministers have offered their resignation to embattled Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

The resignations follow revelations about what he did and did not know about allegations against former deputy chief whip Chris Pincher, who was accused of sexual assault.

In his letter of resignation, Chancellor Rishi Sunak said: "The public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously. I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning."

In his resignation speech to the House of Commons yesterday, former Health Secretary Sajid Javid said treading the tightrope between integrity and loyalty has been impossible over recent months.

And he said he feared the reset button can only be hit so many times.

Labour leader Keir Starmer said that ministers quitting was a case of "sinking ships fleeing the rat"
