There are now 28 Conservative MPs who have publicly called on Boris Johnson to step down over revelations of widespread Covid-rule breaking in Downing Street.
If 54 MPs submit letters of no confidence in the prime minister a vote on his leadership would then be held. However, not all of these MPs have publicly said they have submitted a letter.
Equally, there are likely to be other MPs who who have sent letters to Sir Graham Brady, who organises Tory leadership contests, but who have not made them public.
