British Prime Minister defies calls to resign
Boris Johnson is pushing ahead, vowing to stay on as Prime Minister and continue leading his nation
There has been a landslide of calls for the PM to quit, after several top ministers announced their resignations, unsatisfied with how Johnson is sailing the ship.
There have been more than 40 resignations from within the government, with many lawmakers from within his own Conservative Party publicly staging an open revolt.
Sir Bernard Jenkin, who is the Chair of the Liaison Committee and Conservative MP says he told Johnson he “can go with some dignity” or be “forced out like Donald Trump, clinging to power and pretending he’s won the election when he’s lost”.
Treasury Minister, Helen Whately will also leave her post in the government.
“There are only so many times you can apologies and move on.”

It comes as Johnson hit back and fired Levelling Up Secretary Michael Gove from Cabinet, amid reports the minister was among a number of individuals pushing the leader to resign.
The British leader is refusing to say whether he will stay in the top job even if he loses a confidence vote from within his own party.
Speaking in parliament, former Health Secretary Sajid Javid says he is “deeply concerned about how the next generation will see the Conservative Party”.
Fellow Conservative MP David Davis believes Johnson’s pipeline of problems is “paralysing the nation”.
British media have also had a field day reporting on the resignations after reports emerged some Cabinet Ministers visited Downing Street to encourage Johnson to make a dignified exit.
Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer says enough is enough, and believes those quitting now haven’t “got a shred of integrity”.
“The dying act of his political career is to parrot that nonsense,” Starmer says.

Greenland says “No” to U.S. takeover — Chooses Denmark in geopolitical showdown
Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.
Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.
Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens‑Frederik Nielsen has delivered a clear message amid renewed pressure from the U.S. — if forced to choose between the United States and Denmark, Greenland will pick Denmark, NATO, and the EU.
Nielsen made the declaration in Copenhagen alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen ahead of diplomatic talks with top U.S. officials.
The announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has again stoked controversy by suggesting Washington could pursue ownership or control of Greenland, citing strategic interests in the Arctic. European leaders and Greenlandic officials have pushed back strongly against these ideas, emphasising sovereignty and respect for international law.
This standoff places Greenland’s future in the spotlight — as Copenhagen and Nuuk reaffirm their ties, local sentiment remains overwhelmingly opposed to U.S. annexation and supportive of Greenland’s own path forward.
