Rebel Tories think they've got enough letters to trigger a no confidence vote against Boris Johnson
Boris Johnson has been dubbed the "Conservative Corbyn".Boris Johnson is readying himself for a vote of confidence in his leadership of the Tory party after being dubbed the "Conservative Corbyn".Rebels within his party who have turned on the Prime Minister believe they have reached the 54 letters required to call a vote.It said the only way the Conservatives will win another general election will be without Mr Johnson as Prime Minister.
"A Conservative prime minister being booed by people who turned up to witness people arriving for a service in honour of the Queen is pretty dire," an unnamed Tory MP said. He was jeered as he arrived at the church for Friday's service with wife Carrie, and smiled through the boos as the two climbed the steps.Mr Johnson was reportedly also booed at an East London restaurant where his son Theo worked, dismissively holding his hand out as he left.
If he has reached the required 54 he will tell the Prime Minister and then publicly announce a vote, with Wednesday seen as the most likely day for one.While fewer than 54 Tory MPs have publicly stated they have submitted letters of no confidence, it is thought some have put them in but not announced it.
