At least 38 UK Cabinet ministers and ministerial aides tendered their resignations on July 5 and 6 as Conservative MPs called on Prime Minister Boris Johnson to go.

The Whitehall exodus was triggered on July 5 after the prime minister admitted that it was a “mistake” to keep Chris Pincher in government roles despite sexual misconduct allegations against him.
