LONDON (Reuters) -Boris Johnson said on Thursday he was resigning as Britain's prime minister, bowing to calls from ministerial colleagues and lawmakers in his Conservative Party.
"The process of choosing that new leader should begin now," Johnson said at the door of Number 10 Downing Street. “It is clearly now the will of the parliamentary Conservative Party.”
"And today I have appointed a cabinet to serve, as I will, until a new leader is in place."
