British Prime Minister Boris Johnson delivered a speech at the gate 10 of Tangning Street, London on the 7th that he resigned as the leader of the ruling party and the prime minister, but he would stay to the new leader. Previously, since the 5th, dozens of British government officials, including several ministers, resigned successively.

Analysts pointed out that for a period of time, Johnson has encountered the "party door" scandal, the defeat of the ruling party's conservative party election, and the triple crisis of the storm, which led the calls in the Conservative Party to demand their steps down. The resignation of a large number of government officials made Johnson fall into isolation, and the government was unsustainable and could only choose to resign. The Conservative Party will then start the first battle for the new party. At present, it is not possible to see who is more likely to take over.

Be isolated

When Johnson announced his resignation, the Conservative MP in the parliament clearly hoped that a new party was also the new prime minister. This remarks showed his isolation situation at this time.

The direct reason for Johnson's resignation was the resignation of a large number of government officials since the 5th, which caused the tide of the departure was the Minister of Health Said Javid and the Financial Minister Rich Sunak. They accused Johnson inaccurate in the resignation letter and said they lost confidence in it.

The British media pointed out that the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Health resigned to "causing a serious hit" to the Johnson government because these two positions are responsible for handling the most important things in the United Kingdom in China, that is, rising living costs and new crown epidemics.

In order to "stop loss" quickly, Johnson appointed Minister of Education Nazim Zahawi on the 5th to take over as the Minister of Finance and the Cabinet General Office Steve Barkley.

However, this reorganization failed to prevent the internal government from centrifugal. A large number of government officials resigned after Javid and Sonak. Government ministers, Minister of Transport, Minister of Transport, Minister of International Trade and Minister of Commerce, Energy and Industry Strategy also called on Johnson to resign.

Although Johnson said on the 6th that he would not resign, British media pointed out that even if he insisted on not resigning, the government could not operate effectively. In addition, Johnson had barely passed the barrier in a non -trust voting of the Conservative Party of the Parliament's lower court in early June, and could not vote for unbelievable voting within one year according to the rules of the party. In order to initiate Johnson's voting again. The British media pointed out that if you accept the voting again, Johnson's "pass" is unlikely. Public opinion believes that Johnson is completely isolated within the government and the Conservative Party, so he eventually had to choose to step down.

Triple crisis

Analysts pointed out that Johnson's isolated situation today is the result of the "gathering door" scandal, the defeat of the Conservative Party election, and the overlapping triple crisis of the storm.

The Prime Minister's House and other government departments had gathered in violation of the epidemic prevention regulations during the epidemic. Johnson faced the pressure of resignation from the opposition and Conservative Party due to this scandal for several months. In mid -May, the London Police Department announced the end of the investigation of the "party gate" incident, and issued a total of 126 tickets, involving 83 people, including Johnson and his wife Kali. Johnson thus became the first prime minister in British history to violate the law.

As the influence of the "Party Gate" scandal continued, the Conservative Party led by Johnson had failed in the May local elections and the next election of the Council in June, asking Johnson to step down further.

At the end of June, Johnson's appointed senior official, Christopher Ping Che, resigned because of his exposure. Ping Che was subsequently exposed to more non -endless behaviors, causing public opinion to question whether Johnson still knows his product. On the afternoon of July 5, Johnson apologized for the improper person, but this failed to calm down a new wave of waves that he stepped down.

In addition, Britain has recently had high inflation rates, and the people generally do not satisfy the Johnson government's rising prices. This is also considered one of the reasons why the conservatives are unwilling to accept Johnson's leadership.

Who can take off

Johnson said that the program's first party should start immediately, and the timetable will be announced next week. He has appointed a new cabinet on the 7th, and he and the new cabinet will perform their duties until the new leader is in place.

It is unclear how long the Conservative Party can be produced for the first time. British media said that this process may last for several weeks or even months. Johnson's predecessor Theresa May announced his resignation intention on May 24, 2019, and officially resigned as the leader of the Conservative Party on June 7. Johnson was elected as the Conservative Party on July 23 of the same year and served as British Prime Minister on the 24th. The whole process lasted for two months.

Regarding Johnson's successors, the candidates listed by the British media include Sunak, Zahaw, Javid and Foreign Minister Elizabeth Tras, National Defense Minister Ben Wallace, former Foreign Minister Jerry Hunter, and so on. The British media said that there is no obvious advantage among these people.

Analysts believe that referring to the process of the first conservative party's first replacement, the emergence of the new Prime Minister may go through a relatively long period of time.The performance of the above candidates during this time will largely decide who can laugh to the end.
