Leader of the House of Commons and Conservative party MP Jacob Rees Mogg has claimed that there would need to be a general election if Boris Johnson were to be ousted as Prime Minister.
Rees Mogg yesterday argued on BBC Two's Newsnight that any would-be successor to the Prime Minister should call an election to receive the public's backing.
There is no rule in British law stipulating that a new Tory leader would be required to call a general election after winning a party leadership race.
But Rees Mogg told Newsnight's Kirsty Wark that Britain's parliament has moved to 'an essentially Presidential system' and declared that any new PM would be 'well-advised' to seek a fresh mandate.
