Boris Johnson digs in despite calls to quit
Boris Johnson on Wednesday refused to quit as Britain’s prime minister, despite calls from senior ministerial colleagues to go after dozens of resignations from his scandal-hit government. A Cabinet delegation had awaited his return to Downing Street from a lengthy grilling by a parliamentary committee to tell him his time was up. It was said to include hard-line Interior Minister Priti Patel and Nadhim Zahawi, who has barely been 24 hours in his new job of Finance Minister.
