Boris Johnson stepped down today as leader of the Tories, but intends to stay as Prime Minister until October.
However his own MPs are already urging him to step aside straight away to avoid months of paralysis in Government.
Former Deputy Prime Minister Lord Michael Heseltine said in a reaction that ‘if Boris goes, Brexit goes’ and urged the next Conservative Party leader to renew ties with Brussels.
The former Deputy Prime Minister said Boris Johnson’s departure will likely lead to a shake-up in relations with the European Union, as it was the key policy he nurtured.
He also warned that “extreme anti-Europeanism and right-wingism” would be a “suicide course” for the party.
