On the 5th local time, British Health Secretary Syed Javid and Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak resigned from the government after losing confidence in Prime Minister Johnson.
Javid said on social media that he had submitted his resignation to Prime Minister Johnson.
Javid said it was a great honor to take on the role, but he regretted that he could no longer continue to work in good conscience.
"The public expects the government to run the country correctly, competently and seriously," Sunak said in his resignation letter. "I believe these standards are worth fighting for, and our country is facing enormous challenges, which is why I resign."
British media reported that the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Health Secretary were important officials in the British government, and the resignations of Javid and Sunak "caused a heavy blow" to the Johnson government.
On the same day, Prime Minister Boris Johnson publicly apologized for his indiscretion and the appointment of Christopher Pincher, the Conservative Party deputy whip, to the government.
Christopher Pincher, the Conservative Party's deputy whip previously appointed by Johnson, was exposed to "salty pig hands" and resigned on June 30.
However, Pincher was subsequently exposed to more misconduct, raising questions about whether Johnson was still entrusted with important responsibilities knowing his character.
Johnson has faced pressure to resign from both the Opposition and the Conservative Party over the "Partygate" scandal for some time.
In early June, Johnson passed a no-confidence vote against him by Conservative MPs in the lower house of the British parliament, allowing him to remain as leader of the Conservative Party and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
However, more than 40% of Conservative MPs cast a vote of no confidence in the vote.
