On Tuesday night, Prime Minister Boris Johnson's premiership plunged into crisis following the dramatic resignations of Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid.

They quit within minutes of each other on following a row over Mr Johnson's decision to appoint Chris Pincher as deputy chief whip earlier this year.

After a further flurry of resignations on Wednesday morning, the prime minister faced fierce questioning in the House of Commons for what was sure to be a heated edition of PMQs.

Following this, Sajid Javid spoke to the House to give his resignation speech after quitting as health secretary last night.

With analysis from Editor of The House Magazine, Rosa Prince, and Parlimentary Correspondent Sean Curran.
