PHILIP Hammond will resign on Wednesday if Boris Johnson becomes PM, he announced today.
The Chancellor will join Justice Secretary David Gauke in quitting before BoJo can sack him.
He told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show he can’t sign up to Mr Johnson’s Brexit plans and will therefore step down shortly before Theresa May leaves office.
He said: “I’m sure I’m not going to be sacked because I’m going to resign before we get to that point.
“I understand the conditions for serving in his Cabinet will include accepting a No Deal.
“I intend to resign after Prime Minister’s Questions, before the Prime Minister goes to the Palace.
“All the pollsters, all the bookmakers suggest that Boris Johnson is going to win – the question is by how much.”
Mr Hammond insisted Brexit is the only reason for his resignation, adding: “It’s nothing personal, I’ve always got on very well with Boris and I’ve found him an engaging character.
“Beyond the Brexit question I don’t have many disagreements with him.”
