Is Boris Johnson returning to Downing Street?

After Liz Truss was in office for just 45 days and became the country’s shortest-serving prime minister in the UK, bets have been opened on who will be the new prime minister. The name of someone familiar stands out. Boris Johnson, who left office last month, could return to the seat.

Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who handed over the post to Truss on September 6 as a result of successive scandals, is said to be planning to join the leadership race in the Conservative Party and make a spectacular return to Downing Street. It turned out that Johnson, who was on vacation in the Caribbean, would immediately return to London and he also instructed his team to start preparations.

PROCESS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED BY END NEXT WEEK

The process that will determine the new leader of the Conservative Party and the new prime minister of the United Kingdom is expected to be completed by the end of next week.

JOHNSON BEGINS WORK WITHIN CONSERVATIVE PARTY TO GATHER SUPPORT

According to the British press, Johnson has begun work within the Conservative Party to gather support. It is noted that Johnson, who also extended an olive branch to former Finance Minister Rishi Sunak, another prominent candidate in the prime minister’s race, who did not get along during his time in the seat, enjoys great support in the party and it would not be a surprise if he returned to the prime minister’s office.
