Cabinet Ministers Have Told Boris Johnson To Fire Rishi Sunak

Cabinet Ministers Have Told Boris Johnson To Fire Rishi Sunak

Several Cabinet ministers are said to have told Boris Johnson to fire Rishi Sunak.

It comes just days after the Prime Minister was chastised by the Chancellor for a personal assault on Sir Keir Starmer. On Monday, Mr Johnson, 57, criticised Sir Keir for having failed to charge the paedophile Jimmy Savile when he was director of public prosecutions.


The Chancellor responded by saying that he would not have used such rhetoric in response to Mr Johnson's statement.


"To be honest, I wouldn't have said it, and I'm delighted the Prime Minister clarified what he meant," Mr Sunak added.


Sajid Javid, the Health Secretary, concurred with the Chancellor, saying that Labour leader Ed Miliband "deserves praise for taking on such a major public job and achieving well."


The positions chosen by both against their own Prime Minister, however, did not sit well with the public.

One senior minister demanded Sunak's dismissal, while two others accused the chancellor of being "on manoeuvres" after he chastised the Prime Minister for a personal assault on Sir Keir Starmer, according to the Times.


"He who wields the knife never wears the crown," one cabinet minister told The New York Times.


"It's simply so obvious." There will be a rearrangement after the May elections are completed.

"Sunak must leave. I'm not sure how he [Johnson] can keep someone who is so publicly on the move."

"I think highly of Rishi, but there are individuals around him who are not providing him good counsel," another added.


"They want him to stir things up, but it's not helping him with the backbenches."


"For the day when the leadership race comes around, Liz [Truss, the foreign secretary] has played a much smarter game."


"It's a penknife, not a knife," says the narrator.
