Boris Johnson announced his resignation as an MP on June 9, 2023, accusing a parliamentary probe into the ‘Partygate’ scandal of driving him out//AFPix: Britain’s former prime minister Boris Johnson angrily quit as a member of parliament yesterday, claiming he had been forced out in a stitch-up by his political opponents.
“It is very sad to be leaving Parliament ― at least for now ― but above all I am bewildered and appalled that I can be forced out, anti-democratically... with such egregious bias,” he said. Johnson led the Tories to a thumping 80-seat majority in the December 2019 general election on a promise to “get Brexit done”.
Rishi Sunak, who was one of Johnson’s top team who quit, has been trying to steady the ship since becoming prime minister in October last year, after the turbulent tenure of his former boss and the short-lived premier Liz Truss.
