Britain’s Boris Johnson steps down as leader of Conservatives; will remain PM until autumn

British PM Boris Johnson plans to stand down as leader of the Conservative party. He will continue serving as PM until autumn, as reported by BBC.
He is preparing to appoint new ministers to replace those who left in protest to his management.
Johnson plans to remain in Downing Street until a new Tory leader has been elected as new PM.
At the same time, many Tory MPs are urging him to leave as soon as possible to avoid government paralysis.
Former minister Sir Bob Neill told MPs there is a «serious question mark» hovering over how long this temporary PM could remain in his post.
