Despite the recent resignations of several ministers and secretaries of state, Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is under pressure, wants to continue his work in government.

In times of crisis, a government should not resign, Johnson said on Wednesday at a much-anticipated question and answer session in the British Parliament.

"We have a plan and are pushing it forward." His job is to keep going.

Asked by MPs under what circumstances he would step down, the Conservative politician said if he felt the government could not go ahead.

After Finance Minister Rishi Sunak and Health Minister Sajid Javid, Minister John Glen, who is responsible for the financial sector, also recently made his post available.
