Boris Johnson has already faced a ministerial resignation and it came before he was even Prime Minister.
Arch Remainer Sir Alan Duncan resigned as Foreign Office Minister for the Americas resigned ahead of Boris Johnson taking up the Premiership after the resignation of perennial failure Teresa May.
Duncan is infamously known for having dismissed the 2016 referendum on EU membership, the largest democratic exercise in British history, as a “working class tantrum” and has colluded with outgoing PM May and other Remainers in the Tory party to delay and water down Brexit.
Duncan also strongly defended UK ambassador to the US Sir Kim Darroch when his unprofessional criticisms of the Trump administration were mysteriously leaked to the press just as the 2020 election race heats up.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Hammond, another Remainer, has also vowed to resign his position under a Johnson Premiership.
Europhiles in the Conservative Party are dismayed at Johnsons steadfast position on Brexit in which he said the EU must acquiesce to his demands to renegotiate the leaving agreement and drop the controversial “Irish Backstop” or else he will leave the bloc with no deal on October 31st.
