Boris Johnson has vowed to return to the political front line after his bombshell resignation as a Tory MP.
The former prime minister quoted Arnold Schwarzenegger from the movie The Terminator and said: “I’ll be back.”
The vote came amid a public sparring match between Johnson and Rishi Sunak over the former prime minister’s resignation honors list.
Johnson formally resigned as an MP yesterday after claiming he was kicked out of the Commons over the Privileges Committee’s “witch hunt” investigation at the party’s doorstep.
Johnson struck a defiant tone in the comments to the Daily Express, telling the paper: “We must fully deliver on Brexit and the 2019 manifesto. We must crush Labor at the next election.
“Nothing short of absolute victory and total Brexit will do, and as the great Arnold Schwarzenegger said, I’ll be back.”
