It is understood the PM's planned wedding party at Chequers will be moved to new venue following his resignation - latest
Tory leadership contenders will have to “explain rationale” for staying loyal to PM or not
“Some people will I’m sure want to support someone that remained part of the Prime Minister’s team over these last few days and there will be other who want perhaps to support someone that was critical of the Prime Minister. Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown told BBC’s Today programme: “I think that ship has sailed I think yesterday, everybody this board, they decided that Boris Johnson should remain and he has said very clearly that he won’t be making any major changes during that period. And I think that is a good thing.
"He’s a proven liar who's engulfed in sleaze and we can't have another couple of months of this, you know. So they do have to get rid of him, and if they don't, we will call a no confidence vote because it's pretty clear – he hasn't got the confidence of the house or the British public."Newly-appointed Education Secretary James Cleverly has said it was 'right' that Boris Johnson resigned and called for a successor to be in place 'promptly'.
Former prime minister Sir John Major was among those backing calls for Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab to be installed as a caretaker premier until a permanent successor is in place. Alternatively he suggested a foreshortened leadership contest with Tory MPs electing the new leader who would then take office while party members in the country would be asked to endorse their choice.
