Channel 4 News published this video item, entitled “Boris Johnson resigns – who will replace him?” – below is their description.
He’s going, but not yet.
Boris Johnson will continue as Prime Minister until a new Tory leader is elected – and that is still causing outrage from serving ministers to the former Prime Minister John Major.
Labour said it will call a vote of confidence in the government to try to force him out immediately.
But most Conservative MPs’ attention has turned to who will be the next Prime Minister.
A series of people most voters have barely heard of are jockeying for position – as the party grandees decide how the leadership election will work and how long it will take.

In This Story: Vote
Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.
In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
