In the UK, two ministers have resigned from Boris Johnson’s government: Finance Minister Rishi Sunak and Health Minister Sajid Javid.
Two UK ministers have resigned in the wake of the sexual harassment scandal by a leading Tory party member. Finance Minister Rishi Sunak and Health Minister Sajid Javid announced their withdrawals on Tuesday evening, harshly criticizing Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
In his resignation letter to Johnson, Javid said he was “clear that the situation will not change under your leadership and you have lost my confidence as a result”.
