LONDON – Boris Johnson is gaining support as he moves to choose the next British Prime Minister. Indian-born Priti Patel, who worked as Home Secretary under Boris Johnson, finally came forward to support Boris Johnson. They said that Boris Johnson is the most qualified to be Prime Minister.
‘Boris has shown that he has the ability to make the right decisions and work according to the manifesto. That is why I support him. Boris should return as Prime Minister of Britain. He will be able to strengthen Britain and lead to more prosperity.’- Preeti tweeted.
Preeti came out in support of Boris after he returned to London after his holiday abroad. Liz Truss resigned as Prime Minister of Britain after only 44 days in office. After this, Rishi Sunak, who was competing with Liz Truss, had a chance again. Meanwhile, reports surfaced that Boris Johnson had sagely asked for his cooperation in making him Prime Minister.
Boris Johnson, who came to power with a huge majority in the 2019 elections, was continuously involved in controversies, including the party’s conduct during the Covid lockdown. 50 members of the cabinet resigned and the majority of the party MPs opposed it. Then Lis Truss came to power.
Despite having to resign amid controversy, Boris Johnson is still loved by the Conservative Party. But the requirement to have the support of at least 100 party MPs to contest the elections to become the Prime Minister may backfire on Boris. Out of the total 357 MPs, 50 may stand with Johnson.
