Relations between British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his predecessor Boris Johnson are deteriorating. Over the past few days, the men have not stopped tackling each other under the mute gaze of the media. Boris Johnson announced his resignation from the British Parliament this Friday, June 9. He anticipated the future results of the report on the “Party Gate” at these evenings organized during the health crisis. These dropped yesterday, and they are damning for the former prime minister: Boris Johnson “deliberately misled” Parliament. Since then, other Conservative MPs have also left office. These defections put Rishi Sunak in a bad position, requiring a by-election to replace them. The Conservative Party, which is currently in a poor position in the polls, is not certain to regain its seats. Tensions between Rishi Sunak and Boris Johnson intensified after the Prime Minister resigned after Boris Johnson revised the list of proposed honorary appointments. Rishi Sunak justified his decision by saying that he disagreed with his predecessor and wanted to do things differently. For some, Boris Johnson will prepare his return as if to say “I’ll be back” at the end of his resignation letter.
