About

Boris Johnson is the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. While he is not directly mentioned in most of these articles, his name appears in connection to several current events. Ben Goldsmith, described as an ally of Johnson, has been approached to write nature policies for Reform UK. An article references the "death throes" of Johnson's government in 2022, highlighting Nadhim Zahawi's appointment as chancellor and Rishi Sunak's resignation due to lack of confidence in Johnson. Furthermore, a botched Tory insulation scheme implemented during his premiership is now causing problems for homeowners and casting a shadow over Labour's warm homes plan. These references highlight the lingering impact of Johnson's policies and associations on current political and social issues.
