Johnson's brother resigns as MP citing 'national interest'
By EUobserver
British prime minister Boris Johnson's brother has announced he is resigning as an MP and government minister, citing irreconcilable differences between his family loyalty and the national interest. Jo Johnson has been a Conservative MP for nine years, and is currently a minister for business. It comes in a bad week for the PM, who has lost votes on a no-deal Brexit and a snap election.
