On 14 October, Truss replaced Kwarteng with Jeremy Hunt.[1] The government was hit by further turmoil on 19 October, when Suella Braverman resigned as Home Secretary citing a breach of the Ministerial Code and "concerns about the direction of this government". Later that evening, there were allegations of bullying, physical intimidation, and voting pressure over a Labour-introduced Bill in the House of Commons to ban fracking and confusion about whether Conservative Party MPs were to treat this vote as a matter of confidence in the government.[2] Truss made a statement in Downing Street the following day, announcing she would resign as party leader and Prime Minister.[3]
