'He is damaging the country in a way that I worry is irreparable.' Former No10 Director of Communications campbellclaret says cabinet ministers have to 'step up' and get Boris Johnson to step down. Latest: 📺 Sky 501, Freeview 233 and YouTube
Chris Philp - a Boris Johnson loyalist - stands down as technology minister.
As chair of the Committees on Standards and Privileges - you may remember him from his fierce criticism of the government over partygate - he was among the MPs questioning the prime minister yesterday."I think it's called dramatic irony, isn't it, when when the audience knows more than the characters that they're watching."
So far, 51 people have walked away from Boris Johnson's government, which before the exodus had 120 people on the payroll. Since then, dozens more members of the government have quit - it is unclear whether they had listened to Mr Campbell's own interview with Sky News and that was what persuaded them to go.
"And so he is now seeking yet again to say that the normal rules of life and of politics do not apply to him, and he's damaging the country in a way that I worry is irreparable."David Davies, a minister in the Wales Offices, has written to Boris Johnson to say he will not take over from Simon Hart as Wales secretary.
Labour MP Jess Phillips highlights that the National Security Bill Committee starts today - but the minister has resigned.
