Meanwhile, a leading UK speculative company ‘Betfair’ has claimed that the troubled Boris Johnson will soon resign from the post of Prime Minister. After this, Indian-origin Finance Minister Rishi Sunak can take his place.

The pressure is increasing. Sam Rossbottom of ‘Betfair’ told ‘Wales Online’ that Rishi Sunak is most likely to become Prime Minister in the event of Johnson’s withdrawal. This is followed by Liz Truss (Foreign Minister) and then Michael Gove (Cabinet Minister). However, the race also includes former Foreign Minister Jeremy Hunt, Indian-origin Home Minister Priti Patel, Health Minister Sajid Javid, and Cabinet Minister Oliver Dowden.

What’s the matter?
Several people were reportedly mailed to the party by Martin Reynolds, Johnson’s principal private secretary.

Johnson has now regretted the matter and admitted for the first time that he had attended the feast. Johnson said he thought the event was within the scope of his work-related events.
