Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is in the midst of the most serious political crisis of his career. More than 40 cabinet members and aides have left the government, prompting calls for his resignation. Mr Johnson, on the other hand, is holding on. In the midst of the emergency, an old article written by Mr Johnson when he was a journalist is going viral on social media. Mr Johnson criticized former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown in a 2010 piece for The Telegraph.
He wondered if there was anyone – “the Queen’s Private Secretary, the nice police officer on the door of No 10” – who could inform Mr Brown that his game was up.

On May 10, 2010, a day before Mr Brown resigned, the piece was published.

On Twitter, a screenshot of that article was widely shared. Users who were taken aback by the “irony” left a flood of comments.
“There was always a tweet from Donald Trump. There’s always a column with Boris Johnson “A user tweeted about it. “Certainly correct. Your words have the potential to come back to haunt you “another person said
Mr Johnson is consolidating power despite an endless barrage of resignations. Priti Patel, the UK Home Secretary, and several Conservative Party lawmakers have asked the Prime Minister to resign.

Mr Johnson told parliament on Wednesday that his government would not fall apart after a number of junior officials resigned in protest of his leadership.
“The job of a prime minister in tough circumstances with a massive mandate is to keep going. That’s exactly what I’m going to do “Mr. Johnson informed lawmakers. “We will get on with delivering our mandate and winning another general election,” he added.

Many Tory lawmakers believe that Boris Johnson should be replaced as soon as possible in order to mitigate the party’s electoral damage.
