Former health secretary Matt Hancock appeared on BBC Breakfast this morning (July 7) to share his opinions on whether or not he believes that the Prime Minister should step down – but viewers were distracted by his outfit.
So far more than 50 Members of Parliament have resigned, putting pressure on Boris Johnson to leave his post.
Matt Hancock said: "Unfortunately the Prime Minister has lost the confidence of his party and his cabinet and so now we need to make sure we find the right candidate who can appeal to all parts of the country."

However while he was speaking viewers were distracted by his appearance saying that he looks like "he has slept in his suit for a week".
One person tweeted: "Has Matt Hancock left the coat hanger in his jacket?"
A second said: "Crikey, Matt Hancock looks like he's in a hostage video."
While a third penned: "Matt Hancock on BBC Breakfast from College Green looking like he’s been sleeping rough in the same suit for at least a week."
And a fourth commented: "I’ve never once felt sorry for Matt Hancock until this morning. The man looks genuinely dead inside."
While a fifth was distracted by Matt Hancock's famous pink tie.
They wrote: "The pink tie distracting from the brown nose."
This comes after a BBC Breakfast guest dropped the C-bomb outside Downing Street in awkward on-air blunder.
BBC Breakfast's Jon Kay welcomed two journalists on air on Wednesday morning – but things soon took a turn.
Both Anna Isaacs from the Independent and Sebastian Payne from the Financial Times joined the host to talk about how busy their jobs have been since the first two resignations on Tuesday (July 5).
As the two discussed their thoughts with the BBC Breakfast host, Jon started talking about tax cuts, as he said: "But tax cuts are a possibility now do you think?"
She responded: "Well, there'll be tax cun… cuts to mitigate the fact that we've had tax rises, so that was the problem with the narrative yesterday."
While she continued talking to Jon Kay and glossed over the awkward stumble, viewers were too quick and immediately caught the blunder.
Taking to Twitter, one user wrote: "I think someone just said "Tax C***s on BBC Breakfast."
Users replied to the tweet with one person writing: "I believe I heard the same. Is this a new fiscal policy?" While another added: "She did indeed! And she's not wrong [smiling face]."
Another said: "Lady on BBC Breakfast just said tax c***s instead of tax cuts. She’s blagging it, hoping no one noticed."
