Boris Johnson is set to step down as Prime Minister and Conservative Party leader after a tidal wave of resignations and calls from him to quit.
Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid sparked the end when they resigned on Tuesday night (July 5) in the wake of Number 10’s handling of the Chris Pincher scandal.
It has shaken the Conservative Party and left many wondering what could happen in the next UK general election. Here are the most high profile Tory MPs whose seats could be at risk – including Boris Johnson himself – and the size of their small majorities.
