London: Amid a spate of resignations from the Conservative government, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has agreed to step down from the top post.
According to the Guardian, Johnson will announce his resignation as British Prime Minister later today.
More than 50 ministers have quit the UK government in less than 48 hours, saying Johnson was not fit to be in charge after a series of scandals, while dozens in his Conservative Party are in open revolt.
Johnson will stay on as prime minister till autumn when a new Tory leader is officially appointed at the Conservative Party Conference in October this year.
