🔴 Boris Johnson gives final address from Downing Street before he resigns today ➡️ Liz Truss will be appointed the new prime minister by the Queen later today

this morning before flying to Balmoral to tender his resignation to the Queen.

The reference to Cincinnatus is a hint that he will return to frontline politics in the future, as the Roman farmer-turned-politician was asked back after his initial foray into politics. “I will now be gently re-entering the atmosphere and splashing down invisibly in some remote and obscure corner of the pacific.”

This is the Government “who got Brexit done, the people who delivered the fastest vaccine roll-out in Europe”, he said.Mr Johnson acknowledged that “this is a tough time for the economy” and sort to reassure the public that Ms Truss will do all she can to get the country through this crisis.
