Earlier it was reported that about 50 officials left the British government, addressing letters of no confidence in his policy to the now ex-prime minister. However, Boris Johnson until recently ignored all the fierce attacks of his opponents and instead of resigning, he wrote a letter to Edinburgh in which he denies the Scottish people the right to hold a second independence referendum.
Express opinion polls showed that 68% of Britons opposed Johnson.
Late last Wednesday night, he fired the minister, Michael Gove, for suggesting that he vacate the prime minister's chair.
Sky News reports that Boris Johnson will continue to act as prime minister until a new head of the ruling party is elected, which will be held in October.
