health at several dozen the the best part of 40, a conservative m. p. 's. having resigned. now some of them are julia ministers. some of them are erm harlem entry, private secretaries, one of the latest or the private upon your private secretary up to the scottish secretary saying that the leadership has turned a blind eye to allegations of sexual assaults within its own ranks. referring to the christopher pincher scandal that an mp was, of course appointed to be deputy chief whip or his johnson as apologize said with hindsight, it was a mistake. lots of people, not shirts, thinking that he hasn't gone far enough or in actually tackling the issue. in fact, he was asked at this liaison committee in parliament just a couple of hours ago directly, or why he thought the issue of integrity in public life had become such a problem under his leadership,
8:05 pm
he swerved. he said that he was still in the job to deliver the mandate, insisting that he could carry on with, even with these cabinet resignations. well right behind me, there are several cabinet members waiting to tell baris johnson he should go. and one of them is none other than the dean's or how weak the man who's just stepped in to fill the vacant post of chancellor. we're understand pretty. but tell the home secretary is here to we've also seen nadine doris, the culture secretary, a walk into number 10. she told reporters she thought maurice johnson should stay. so he is going to face a very tough time here in the next hour or so. one problem that has gone away for now is the prospect of an imminent vote of no confidence because the 1922 committee which is considering a rule chase while out another vote within the space of a year having held in june is now not going to address these you until next monday,
8:06 pm
that's when they'll choose a new executive, the whole of the executive 18 members. and now it's understood that many people standing for that specifically want to run or to change the rule to, to be able to get rid of boys. johnson bots at the liaison committee earlier in parliament, boris johnson was asked whether he would in fact i'm pushed for a fresh general election. and after several times of being pushy, he did rule that out. then he was asked if he would resign if he lost a vote of no confidence. he did not directly address that question. nadine baba on downing street. thank you. will lance bring in the leon emerald lee, who's a political commentator on a former aide to the break secretary and the chief secretary to the treasury. he joins us from london as we heard there from the dame barbara on downing street. he looked like the wolves are circling, and he is the final hours, the boys,
8:07 pm
johnson government. i seen that way. it seemed that the right single no for the prime minister. he has been under pressure for a number of months now. and it seems as though that the ball was finally closing in on him. he's got a number of n p loyal employees previously, very loyal employees. oh, now asking him to go saying it's right thing for the party. it's the right thing for the country. and i think could be very hard for him to consider any other option other than at resigning and resigning soon. and of course, hypothetically, if he doesn't choose to, to resign, despite the weight of pressure upon him, the other option would be for him to be voted out of office in a vote of no confidence. what's the choreography there? well, i think this comes down to dignity, and whether or not bar's johnson wants a dignified exit, or whether or not he is going to fight till the bitter end. i think he will want to avoid a vote of no confidence because ultimately that's him being pushed. he may well wish to jump on his own accord and i think that will be going through his head. he
8:08 pm
will be going to the head of his closest aides as to how they can protect his dignity for post prime ministerial life. i think we are at that stage now in the boyish johnson saga. so i think he will want to avoid that vote of no confidence but that he is an options film a cause if he continues to be a to be stubborn and say, actually on not leaving, then of i don't know, confidence will seem to be put in place his plan be, but plan a right now looks to be, he goes on his own accord. and if he does miraculously and inverted commas decide to to resign. what's the, the natural development from? then oversea, we've had such a job. he'd and richie c, like the house secretary and chance of exchequer both resigned within moments of either each other. and they, i, at the top job. what would happen firstly, in the immediate aftermath, and then later down the line in the media, altamont. or if johnson is likely to stay on as an interim prime minister that's been the protocol for previous prime ministerial resignations. difficulty he's got
8:09 pm
is that he's got around 30 to 40 ministerial posts that he needs to fill all there enough m p 's that he can, he can count on to serve in his government even if it is only over a short term period at once. that time table has been set for his departure. that will trigger a leadership contest within the conservative party. and as you say, we could see a wide open field thereof. sacha javin, which she to not give already said that they are going. there are others within cabinets such as new deems a hallway, the chancellor, liz trust, the foreign secretary who would certainly fancy a crack of a top job if it became available. so could be a wide open field, quite a bit of contest, potentially in the conservative party, which is what they want to avoid. frankly, given the current climate a home and abroad. so a difficult, a few weeks and months ahead. even if the prime minister does go for the conservative party, it's bad news, a wound really? of course, the resignation of issue soon i can such avi came as a surprise to to many,
8:10 pm
but there must have been some for some calculation that's gone into this behind the scenes. can you give us a sense of the, or the work that may have gone into this preparation to, to make this big snap decision? well, definitely they would have been speaking to, to the allies. and it's worth noting that both rashid soon and such a java, our friends, they are known to be fond of each other. rashly seen serving on the subject java briefly while he was chancellor before before she took that job himself. so they would have been speaking amongst themselves, they would've been sounding out of colleagues in the parliamentary party if now was the right time. and obviously the judgment for them was that now is the right time . and they clearly believe that they had the support of others within the party to follow them in their own resignation, which seems to have been the case that calculation was accurate and for them now of course it is unlikely, but that will be one. see one of those names, if not both of them on the leadership ballot. if and when that time comes they will
8:11 pm
have been making sure that they've got the support within the parliamentary party to number one. get on the ballot for leadership, which would then move to the party members, the rank and file. and that would have been the calculation that they've made. and crucially, and i think this is an important point to make, is that a lot of back bench empties with, becoming frustrated with members of the cabinet for not acting. and they were almost the noise that was sitting on their hands whilst the government seemed to be competing around them. so where she's seen such a job, i thought now's the time to go might wind some fade with some of those back bench m p to straighten and put me in a good position for any impending leadership contest or i. it's leon murali, political commentator for my age, the breakfast secretary and the chief secretary to the treasury. thank you so much for your insight. thank you. thou sedans, military leader general abdul fata alba has removed the 5 remaining civilians from the governing sovereign council. but monday,
