Boris Johnson's scandal-ravaged premiership appeared on the brink of collapse Wednesday, after numerous ministers and former allies pulled their support for the beleaguered British Prime Minister and urged him to resign before he is forced from office.
Johnson began the day vowing to fight on, despite the shock resignations of his chancellor, health Secretary and dozens of other lawmakers furious about the latest saga to engulf Downing Street: the handling of a resignation by Johnson's former deputy chief whip, Chris Pincher, who was accused of groping two men last week.
But a flood of resignations on Wednesday may now sink the Prime Minister, with MP after MP lambasting his dishonesty, accusing him of eroding standards in public life, and urging him to step down for the good of the country.
