Boris Johnson faces a vote of no confidence

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson faces a vote of no confidence in the House of Commons later today, according to expectations.

The announcement of the move is expected to come quickly, according to Graham Pardy, chair of the Conservative Committee responsible for organizing such votes.

Speculation about a possible vote has increased, with Johnson still facing calls to resign over his appearances at parties during the lockdown imposed to combat Covid.

If 54 Conservative Party members submit letters of no-confidence against Johnson, a vote will be held.

Among the Conservative members, former Minister Jesse Norman was the last to confirm his move.
