Sajid Javid remains favourite to become chancellor. The current home secretary arrived with Mr Johnson when the new Conservative leader addressed his MPs at a meeting of the backbench 1922 Committee.

Mr Johnson's allies have also revealed that the reshuffle will also propel"a host of Tory rising stars" - with promotions likely for Rishi Sunak, Oliver Dowden, Tracey Crouch and Robert Jenrick -"as he looks to recognise talent from across the party".A source close to the incoming prime minister said:"Boris will build a cabinet showcasing all the talents within the party that truly reflect modern Britain.

One appointment has already been made. Mark Spencer, a burly farmer from Nottinghamshire who is MP for Sherwood, has been appointed chief whip, despite backing Remain in the EU referendum.Mrs May's long-suffering chief whip, Julian Smith, is not being dropped from the government. He is to become a minister of state who attends cabinet.

Sky News has learned from a senior Westminster source that Mr Johnson will"definitely" address MPs in the Commons on the last day before they head off for a five-week summer recess.It is understood there was a clash between"parliamentarians" on his team, who wanted him to address the Commons, and his staff and advisers, who wanted his first big speech to be outside Westminster.

But the parliamentarians prevailed and negotiations with Speaker John Bercow are now under way about whether Mr Johnson should make a"speech as new PM" or a conventional Commons statement, on which he could be questioned by Jeremy Corbyn and other MPs.
