London: Boris Johnson has resigned. This is something everyone had been expecting this week. But the Prime Minister had refused to go. He insisted on clinging to as his government, battered by endless scandals and crises for a year, collapsed around him over the last couple of days.

Besides these 29 ministers, dozens of parliamentary private secretaries (PPSs) had exited as well, taking the number of resigning ministers and government aides to more than 50.
