The United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson suffered two shock departures from his government Tuesday, including his finance minister, as civil war erupted in the high command of the ruling Conservative Party.

Rishi Sunak quit as chancellor of the exchequer and Sajid Javid resigned as health secretary, with both saying they could no longer tolerate the culture of scandal that had stalked Johnson for months.

But by Tuesday, that defence had collapsed after a former top civil servant said Johnson, as foreign minister, was told in 2019 about another incident involving his ally. Other cabinet members including Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and Defence Secretary Ben Wallace – two likely contenders for the leadership, continue to back Johnson, aides said.
