»Za vas, britansko javnost, vem, da je veliko ljudi, ki jim bo odleglo, morda pa jih bo kar nekaj tudi razočaranih. Želim, da veš, kako žalosten sem, da opuščam najboljšo službo na svetu. Toda to so odmori,« je dejal Boris Johnson.
“To you, the British public, I know there are many people who will be relieved and perhaps quite a few will also be disappointed. I want you to know how sad I am to be giving up the best job in the world. But them’s the breaks,” Boris Johnson said. https://t.co/DznGomHOPg pic.twitter.com/7uNFXVjwPy

“Jasno je, da je zdaj volja parlamentarne konservativne stranke, da mora biti nov vodja te stranke in s tem novi premier,” je dejal v četrtek.
“Strinjal sem se s sirom Grahamom Bradyjem, predsednikom naše parlamentarne klopi, da se postopek izbire novega vodje začne zdaj, časovni razpored pa bo objavljen naslednji teden.”
“Danes sem imenoval kabinet, ki bo služboval, kot bom, dokler ne bo postavljen nov vodja.”
“Torej želim povedati milijonom ljudi, ki so za nas glasovali leta 2019, mnogi med njimi so prvič glasovali za konservativce. Hvala za ta neverjeten mandat. Največja konservativna večina po letu 1987,” je dodal.
Boris Johnson is set to resign today following mounting pressure from lawmakers in his own Conservative Party to stand down. This is what is likely to happen when the British Prime Minister steps down ⬇️https://t.co/7zrFk17raW

Če bi Boris padel, je med vrhnjimi kandidati za prihodnjo predsednico torijevske vlade rezervna častnica Penny, ki ji je bila vzor M.Thatcher. Ne bo nam hudega. ☕️🥐 pic.twitter.com/ZPylrmQ62I

After Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s reported decision to step down as the leader of Britain’s Conservative Party, the spotlight turned to who might succeed him.

Sinoči je Johnson dejal, da namerava ostati in se boriti. Toda plaz odstopov vladnih ministrov se je nadaljeval vse do četrtka, s pismom za pismom, ki so kritizirali škandala prizadetega voditelja in pozivali Johnsona, naj odstopi.
Johnsonov odhod pomeni izjemen padec za predsednika vlade, ki je nekoč veljal za politično velesilo, s privlačnostjo, ki je presegala tradicionalne strankarske linije. Decembra 2019 je prepričljivo zmagal z obljubo, da bo dosegel dogovor o brexitu in popeljal Združeno kraljestvo v svetlo prihodnost zunaj Evropske unije. Vendar se je njegov premierski položaj popadel po pandemiji Covid-19.
Najneposrednejši vzrok za njegovo smrt so bile posledice Johnsonovega neuspešnega reševanja škandala v zvezi z vladnim uradnikom, ki naj bi prejšnji teden na večerji otipaval dve osebi.
Toda Johnson se je soočil s številnimi drugimi škandali, ki so prizadeli njegov položaj v anketah – kljub njegovi prepričljivi zmagi na splošnih volitvah pred manj kot tremi leti z 80 sedeži. Med njimi so obtožbe o neustrezni uporabi donatorskega denarja za plačilo obnove njegovega doma na Downing Streetu in ukaz poslancem, naj glasujejo na način, ki bi zaščitil kolega, ki je kršil pravila lobiranja.
Johnson said he would stay on the job until a new leader is in place.
He said he had agreed that the “the process of choosing that new leader should begin now " and a timeline for the selection of his successor would soon be announced. https://t.co/DznGomHOPg

Kot še navaja BBC, bo poleti potekala tekma za vodenje torijcev, zmagovalec pa bo Johnsona zamenjal predvidoma oktobra, ko bo potekala konferenca konservativne stranke. Pred tem sta z ministrskih mest danes odstopila še minister za Severno Irsko Brandon Lewis in ministrica za izobraževanje Michelle Donelan. Oba sta ob odstopu dejala, da glede na okoliščine nista imela druge izbire, poroča francoska tiskovna agencija AFP.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson survived multiple scandals and a no-confidence vote during his time in office. But the resignation of two top ministers changed things.
Here’s a guide to how he got here.https://t.co/P0SH3l5VGI

Yes, his name is Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson – but "Boris Johnson" probably helps portray himself as someone who fights "the elites." https://t.co/CMmtvuCyTT
