Boris Johnson will become the artist formerly known as Prime Minister when he quits Downing Street, according to his dad. Stanley Johnson expects his son to return to painting to console himself after being forced to resign this week.
Mr Johnson finally threw in the towel on Thursday morning after pressure from scores of minister who quit following a scandal hit couple of months for the government, reports the Mirror. It came to a head when it was revealed he had been aware of allegations of "inappropriate behaviour" by MP Chris Pincher before making him deputy chief whip.
As the race to replace him begins, a rumours begun by one of Mr Johnson's ex lover claiming he would actually stand to be the next Tory leader have been quickly quashed. It has been revealed that any attempt by the PM to run again in the leadership contest would be against Tory party rules.
