STORY: Johnson made the comment when asked how his week was going by opposition Labour Party lawmaker Darren Jones during a parliamentary Liaison Committee session.

Asked whether housing minister Michael Gove had asked him to resign, Johnson said he was not “going to give a running commentary on political events.”

The Daily Mail earlier reported that Gove, one of the most senior ministers in the British government, had told Johnson he must quit.

At least 32 British lawmakers, including finance minister Rishi Sunak, have left Johnson's government in less than 24 hours, saying the British leader no longer has their confidence and plunging his government into crisis.
