Boris Johnson faces MPs in the House of Commons after cabinet members resign

Boris Johnson received cheers and some boos as he arrived in the Commons chamber.

Gaps could be seen on the Conservative benches as Prime Minister’s Questions got under way.

New Chancellor Nadhim Zahawi, Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries and Scottish Secretary Alister Jack were among Boris Johnson’s allies on the frontbench.

To laughter, Mr Johnson added: “This morning I had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. In addition to my duties in this House, I expect I shall have further such meetings later today.”
