UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has finally announced his resignation as Conservative Party leader after 50 MPs and senior colleagues quit over his latest scandal, involving the appointment of an MP to a top job even though Boris knew he was accused of sexual misconduct.
But why has it taken so long to oust him, given that he has been embroiled in one scandal after another for decades? What happens now in Westminster and who is most likely to be Boris' successor?
The Quicky speaks to a former British MP who spent nearly two decades serving the public to find out how Boris Johnson managed to rise to power despite a litany of affairs and controversies, and who is now battling it out to replace him.
