BORIS JOHNSON has been appointed the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, but following his success, This Morning viewers saw guest Nick Ferrari comment on the difficulty he is going to face in the new role.
ITV viewers tuned in to see Ruth Lansford and Eamonn Holmes presenting This Morning today, but halfway through the show, the schedule was interrupted by the announcement that Boris Johnson was the new Conservative party leader and from tomorrow, the new Prime Minister of the country.
Following the result, viewers returned to the studio where journalist and television presenter Nick Ferrari and journalist Alison Phillips gave their opinions.
“There we have it,” Holmes commented. “Boris Johnson will become the 77th Prime Minister. Final thoughts?”
Ferrari was first to discuss and he simply said: “He’s won the battle, now the war begins,” reminding the new Prime Minister there is still a lot of work to be done.
“The war against his own party, against the House of Commons and possibly the war against Brussels.”
Phillips stated: “And I think he was talking about there about having a ‘can do’ attitude, well that’s great to have optimism and hope, but after a while you just need policies and plans and hard work.
The result of the contest was announced just after midday with Dame Cheryl Gillan MP revealing Mr Johnson had won with a landslide vote.
