Michael Gove has told Boris Johnson to step down as prime minister, a bombshell report has claimed.
Michael Gove was nowhere to be seen as Boris Johnson took a battering during PMQs today to step down as prime minister, a bombshell report has claimed.
The Levelling Up Secretary is one of the most senior members of Mr Johnson’s Cabinet, but was nowhere to be seen as the PM took a battering during PMQs.A spokesman for Mr Gove did not dispute this. Mr Gove famously torpedoed Mr Johnson’s first leadership bid in 2016, before agreeing to join his Cabinet in 2019.It’s hard to see how the PM can survive the collapse of his Government, but he told MPs today he would not resign.
