Theresa May has lost a Cabinet minister roughly every six weeks since November.

And that's not even counting junior ministers.

The departure of Brexit Secretary David Davis, and his junior Minister Steve Baker, takes the total departures to 12.

Here are all the resignations and sackings from Theresa May's government since the 2017 election.

Note: Not included in this list is Lord Bates, the International Development minister who tried to resign in January for being late to a debate in the House of Lords. Number 10 declined to accept his resignation.

Prime Minister Theresa May faces the collapse of her government after Boris Johnson resigned as Foreign Secretary over Brexit.

The Tory giant's departure is a devastating blow less than 24 hours after Brexit Secretary David Davis quit in protest at Mrs May's "dangerous" plan for leaving the EU.

A Downing Street spokesman said: "This afternoon, the Prime Minister accepted the resignation of Boris Johnson as Foreign Secretary. His replacement will be announced shortly. The Prime Minister thanks Boris for his work."
