Boris Johnson will carry out a mini reshuffle of his team on Wednesday after promising to change key members of his team to appease angry Conservative MPs, Downing Street confirmed.

"You can expect there will be a small number of changes to be announced this afternoon," a spokesman said.

Johnson is expected to move Chief Whip Mark Harper to a new role, with Chris Pincher considered the frontrunner to replace him, as Insider reported in January.

Jacob Rees-Mogg, the leader of the House of Commons, could be handed a Cabinet-level role as a minister for "Brexit opportunities," reports said.
