Despite the cascading scandals, Boris Johnson resisted for a long time. But let go by his own camp, the whimsical man had to resign himself to resignation, Thursday, July 7. “It was about time. Have you ever seen someone be so arrogant, ignorant, delusional? The list goes on”, says a resident of London (United Kingdom). The blunder too many was the appointment of a minister accused of sexual assault a few days ago.
