Nadine Dorries has called for Boris Johnson to return as Prime Minister, as calls for Liz Truss to resign continue to grow. Addressing speculation about who might replace Ms Truss if she were to resign, Ms Dorries said: “There is no unity candidate. No one has enough support. Only one MP has a mandate from party members and from the British public – a mandate with an 80 seat majority. @BorisJohnson.
“The choices are simple – back Liz, if not bring back Boris or face a GE within weeks.”
Ms Truss has faced numerous calls to resign from within her own party.
Tory MPs Crispin Blunt, Andrew Bridgen and Jamie Wallis all publicly stated they believe she should resign.
More than 100 MPs are reportedly ready to submit letters of no confidence in the Prime Mininster.
Ms Truss is set to meet her cabinet and with moderate Tories in the One Nation group this evening in a bid to save her premiership.
Meanwhile, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer accused Ms Truss of being “in office but not in power”.
