Boris Johnson is back on holiday, shortly after returning from another break, as he enters his final few weeks in Downing Street. Mr Johnson, who will resign from No 10 on September 6, took a holiday earlier this month despite warnings of further inflation and the threat of a recession later this year. Now, the outgoing Prime Minister is reportedly on another break, this time in Greece. On Monday, former Cabinet minister Brandon Lewis defended Mr Johnson, rejecting any suggestion that he had “thrown in the towel”. So while somebody is away, whether they are secretary of state or let alone the Prime Minister, they will be continuing to work.
