UK PM Boris Johnson announces resignation 

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the official statement said, "It is now clearly the will of the parliamentary Conservative party that there should be a new leader of that party and therefore a new Prime Minister and I have agreed with Sir Graham Brady, the chairman of our backbench MPs that the process of choosing that new leader should begin now and the timetable will be announced next week." 

Boris Johnson said that he had tried to convince his colleagues that it would be "eccentric" to change governments when they have been "delivering so much" and have a "vast mandate." However, he added that he has been unsuccessful in his efforts to convince his colleagues. He thanked the people of Britain for allowing him to serve them as their Prime Minister. According to AP, Boris Johnson after his resignation announcement held a cabinet meeting and said that the government would not work to "implement new policies or make major changes of direction."
