Shortly after Jeremy Hunt was at No 10, Attorney General Jeremy Wright turned up.

Conservative MP and former attorney general Dominic Grieve said Boris Johnson's views on Brexit have never been clear.

"At various times he's said very different things including, as you may recall, just before the Brexit referendum, producing two speeches. One in favour of campaigning for Remain and one in favour of campaigning for Leave," said the MP who supported remaining in the EU.

"I think the remarkable thing is he's been tolerated as long as he has."

There had been rumours junior minister Suella Braverman would quit the Department for Exiting the European Union - but that appears not to be the case.

Ms Braverman has tweeted she is looking forward to working with new Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab.

Jeremy Hunt's arrival at Downing Street is, unsurprisingly, leading to rumours he could replace Boris Johnson as foreign secretary.

Is it time for Theresa May to start thinking outside the box?

Ahead of his own resignation, Conor Burns told Radio 4's PM programme that "it had been a very difficult decision for" Mr Johnson to quit as foreign secretary.

Mr Burns added he "simply felt he could not defend the position that the cabinet were bounced into" at the Chequers summit.

Conor Burns, who had served as Boris Johnson's parliamentary private secretary, has also announced his resignation.

Boris Johnson says the prime minister's plans would mean Britain taking on "the status of a colony".

Responding his resignation, the prime minister writes to Mr Johnson saying it is "right" he steps down, given he cannot support the agreement reached on Friday.

She adds that she is "surprised" to receive his resignation after the "productive discussions" held at Chequers last week.

David Davis's resignation was met with a collective shrug of the shoulders in Brussels on Monday. "How can we miss a man who was never here?", one EU source commented to me. The Brexit secretary made one visit to Brussels in the last four months.

A far more familiar face here is Olly Robbins, the prime minister's Europe adviser. The EU is reassured that he's staying in his post - for now. But the mood in Brussels - especially after hearing this afternoon that Boris Johnson too was gone - is far from blasé.

The president of the European Council, Donald Tusk, said Europe was deeply troubled not by British cabinet resignations, but by Brexit itself.

"Politicians come and go," he said. "But the problems they have created for the people remain. The mess caused by Brexit is the biggest problem in the history of EU-UK relations. And it is still very far from being solved."

A sense of unease hangs heavy.

Boris Johnson's job as foreign secretary was to convince the world that Brexit did not mean Britain's withdrawal from global affairs. It is a task that few historians will conclude Mr Johnson achieved.

On Monday, he was supposed to be chairing a summit in London on the Western Balkans to show the UK's continuing commitment to European security.

Instead, foreign ministers tweeted their frustration at the absence of their host as he agonised about his future.

This week is a moment when Britain's voice is meant to be heard - at the Nato summit in Brussels and during President Trump's visit to the UK.

There is diplomacy to be done after the death of a British national from what is suspected to be a Russian nerve agent attack, a shocking event that has been overshadowed by the latest dramas over Brexit.

Instead, the departure of Mr Johnson will add to the uncertainty that diplomats and politicians from overseas feel about Britain's foreign policy.

Chris Green, Conservative MP for Bolton West and Atherton, said "Brexit must mean Brexit" as he handed in his resignation.

Mr Green was a parliamentary private secretary for the Department of Transport.

Russian official state TV Rossiya 1 says Boris Johnson’s resignation is “not a big loss for global diplomacy” - and goes on to list some of his “insulting” statements in relation to foreign officials and countries.

“Theresa May’s future as premier is again hanging by a thread," the TV channel adds.

Speaking on LBC radio, Nigel Farage has said that he will "very seriously consider" seeking a return to the UKIP leadership if the Brexit process is not "back on track" and Theresa May's Chequers agreement has not been ditched by March 2019.
