Recall that the embattled UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson resigned today, Thursday, following a rebellion within his Conservative Party.
Johnson had become embroiled in a web of scandals that forced his core supporters to forsake him.
Over 50 members of the government and five cabinet ministers have resigned since Tuesday.
In the heat of the crisis, Johnson’s former deputy chief whip, Chris Pincher resigned following allegations of groping two men last week.
Johnson, who was initially insistent on remaining in power, eventually agreed to resign.
The UK Prime Minister had won a landslide victory in December 2019, while holding on to the promise of delivering a Brexit deal and leading the UK to a bright future outside the European Union, EU.
