Boris Johnson earlier today gave his final speech as the UK’s prime minister before Liz Truss takes over the role
In his farewell speech at Downing Street, he assured all of his unflinching support for the Prime Minister elect-Liz Truss and government.
Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth the second is scheduled to formally appoint Truss as Britain’s Prime Minister today. The ceremony will take place at the queen’s Balmoral estate in Scotland, where the monarch is spending her summer, and not the popular Buckingham Palace in London.
