Boris Johnson appears to threaten general election

Boris Johnson's ex-girlfriend Petronella Wyatt has accused the PM of 'not caring about the electorate'.

The journalist, who had a four-year affair with Mr Johnson while they worked for The Spectator magazine, claimed to have told him on several occasions that he 'viewed Tory voters with contempt'.< /p>

She tweeted, "Boris doesn't care about the electorate. He views Tory voters with contempt and has told me so many times."

His comments come as Mr Johnson defies calls to resign despite a fresh wave of ministerial resignations, following the departure of Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid last night.

A total of 21 MPs have resigned as ministers, parliamentary private secretaries, trade envoys or Conservative party vice-chairman since 6 p.m. Tuesday.

Previously on Good Morning Britain, Ms Wyatt predicted her ex-lover's premiership would turn sour and said he was in a 'mess of his own making'.

She told the show last month, "He likes people a lot, which causes all kinds of problems in government, because he makes promises he can't keep, he makes enemies of deputies.

“While you can do this in your personal life, it catches up with you in politics.”

She added, "He hates confrontation. He hates arguments. He doesn't like to tell people something nasty.
