Johnson will run for Tory leadership
By EUobserver
Former UK foreign minister and key Brexiteer, Boris Johnson, said on Thursday he will be standing as a candidate to replace prime minister Theresa May as Conservative party leader, Reuters reported. May has said she will step down if her Brexit deal is approved, although she has not put a date on it. "Of course I'm going to go for it," Johnson said, who resigned last July from May's cabinet.
