PM Boris Johnson's resignation: What happens now?
Mr Johnson intends to continue as prime minister until a new leader is in place.
In his resignation statement he said: "I've agreed with Sir Graham Brady, the chairman of our backbench MPs, that the process of choosing that new leader should begin now and the timetable will be announced next week.Could Mr Johnson go sooner? Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer says if Mr Johnson is not removed at once, he would call a vote of no confidence.
Such an outcome, however, would rely on Conservative MPs voting against their own government - which could be unlikely.At the moment, there is no obvious successor to Mr Johnson, but there are several potential candidates.
