Huge numbers of ministers have resigned in the last 48 hours, leading to Boris Johnson announcing at 12.30pm on Thursday that he will step down as prime minister once a new Tory leader is found.
The situation – which began with the dual resignations of chancellor Rishi Sunak and health secretary Sajid Javid on Tuesday evening – has left some departments with hardly any ministers, with Johnson's attempts to replace them not keeping up with resignations.
Former cabinet secretary Gus O'Donnell said earlier today that the civil service can manage “for a few weeks” without ministers "but it’s absolutely not a good place to be".
Here is the latest breakdown of how many ministers are left in each department. For the full list of resignations, click here.
