First out was Britain’s Health Minister Sajid Javid.
– It seems clear to me that this situation will not change under your leadership, and you have therefore lost my trust, Javid writes in his letter of resignation to Johnson.
– It has been a great privilege to have this role, but I do not have a conscience to continue, he writes on Twitter.
Shortly after Javid’s resignation became known, Finance Minister Rishi Sunak also announced his resignation.

– Fundamentally different
On Twitter, Sunak has posted a longer letter, which he writes is his resignation to Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
– The population rightly expects the government to carry out its role correctly, competently and seriously. I realize that this may be my last job as a minister, but I believe that these standards are worth fighting for – and that is why I am resigning.

In the letter, he further writes that recent times have shown that he and Johnson are fundamentally different.
– I am sorry that I am leaving the government, but have concluded that we can not continue like this.
Outside the prime minister’s residence in Downing Street, a silent Boris Johnson passed reporters on Tuesday night.
Several ministers, such as Justice Minister Dominic Raab, Interior Minister Priti Patel, Foreign Minister Liz Truss, and Defense Minister Ben Wallace have said after the resignations of their two colleagues that they will not do the same, writes Sky News.
