Boris Johnson vows to stay in power despite Cabinet resignations
LONDON — British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Wednesday he plans to stay in power despite the resignations of two top Cabinet ministers and a slew of more junior officials.
Johnson quickly replaced the two men, but a string of junior ministers have also quit, and Johnson’s support inside his Conservative Party is shrinking rapidly. How he handles the tough questions could indicate whether a simmering rebellion in his Conservative Party can gather enough strength to oust him.
Through it all, he has vowed to carry on governing — even suggesting he wanted to stay in office until the 2030s.
