'The PM is being propped up by a corrupted party, defending the indefensible' says Labour

Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer described a slew of resignations from Boris Johnson's government as "sinking ships fleeing the rats" as the two leaders clashed at PMQs.
It followed a morning which saw more ministers and aides resign their positions.
Sir Keir described Mr Johnson's new Cabinet as a "Z-list of cast of nodding dogs".
