MADRID, 7 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -
The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson, will present his resignation as leader of the Conservative Party on Thursday in the face of the cascade of resignations within the Government, although he will remain as Prime Minister until the fall, as reported by the British television network BBC.
According to this information, Johnson has conveyed his willingness to leave office due to the increased pressure on him in recent days, after which a race for the succession will open between the 'Tories' ahead of the party conference in October , when the elected person would replace him as prime minister.
In the early hours of this Thursday, the British Minister for Northern Ireland, Brandon Lewis, and several Secretaries of State resigned, with which there are already more than 50 positions that have left the Executive since Tuesday. The 'number two' of the Conservative Party, Caroline Johnson, has also submitted her resignation.
