"In all my time I've never seen such molten anger against a sitting Prime Minister from the backbenches... they cannot stand this man any longer"" - Andrew Marr
Dozens of Ministers have resigned from government positions in a single day, and a delegation of senior MPs has visited Boris Johnson to tell him to resign. But in his Liaison Committee hearing today, the Prime Minister asserted that he will not step down.
Here Andrew Marr explains how Boris Johnson's assertions that he will cling to power could genuinely destroy the modern conservative party that he himself helped to create.
