Later today, Boris Johnson will address the nation after announcing his resignation as the Conservative Party's leader.

By the time of the Conservative Party conference in October, a new Tory leader is anticipated to have taken office; Mr. Johnson intends to act as acting prime minister in the interim.

The PM "will make a statement to the country today," according to a No. 10 official, and the BBC stated that it is most likely to happen before lunchtime.

Despite growing calls for him to resign and a wave of resignations that has seen more than 50 Tory MPs depart the Government in less than 48 hours, Mr. Johnson initially promised to continue fighting.

But now that pressure has been applied, he will resign. As a result of the decision, there will be a power vacuum at the head of the Conservative Party, and candidates for the position are now anticipated to begin announcing their candidacies in the next few days.
