A Zimbabwean nanny named Theresa Dawes claims that she was fired by Carrie Johnson, the wife of Boris Johnson, just three days into her job after she was found drinking a glass of wine with Boris Johnson to celebrate the birth of their baby. Theresa (59) alleges that she is owed thousands of pounds. Boris allegedly apologized, citing Carrie’s hormones as the reason for the dismissal. Theresa is considering legal action to recover her unpaid wages and severance pay.
The Johnsons have denied Theresa’s claims. Boris Johnson, as a former Prime Minister, receives a substantial annual allowance of £115,000 and has earned millions from speaking engagements. Theresa insists that there was no inappropriate behaviour between her and Boris, and their discussions centred on Zimbabwean politics.
Theresa regrets getting involved with the Johnsons, stating that the situation has been a complete nightmare. She believes that the reason for her dismissal may have been Carrie’s mother witnessing her having wine with Boris. She said:
<blockquote>
I know he’s had three wives, however many kids. But I’m not interested, he’s not my type. I don’t know if she felt threatened. I don’t know what she was thinking.
I was looking forward to helping out a family with their new arrival but I got caught in the middle of something else.
I’d only been there for three days and I didn’t even get to hold the baby. I wish I’d never got involved with them, it’s been a complete nightmare. To be fair, it was quite a nice rosé but it definitely wasn’t worth it.
</blockquote>
Theresa had travelled thousands of miles from Zimbabwe to work for the Johnsons at their Oxfordshire mansion.
Theresa believes the reason for her dismissal was that Carrie’s mother saw her having a glass of wine with Boris. Theresa suspects that mentioning a former employer’s celebration of Boris’s downfall in the Partygate scandal may have contributed to the situation. She had travelled a long distance from Harare to work at the Johnsons’ mansion in Oxfordshire.

Zimbabwean Nanny Says She Was Fired By Wife Of Britain's ex-PM Boris Johnson In 3 Days

Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson, has claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin “sort of threatened” him with a missile attack shortly before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022.
According to a new BBC documentary to be aired on Monday evening, the threat was made in a phone call conducted when the Russian attack on Ukraine was increasingly becoming inevitable. Said Johnson:
<blockquote>
He (Putin) sort of threatened me at one point and said, ‘Boris, I don’t want to hurt you, but with a missile, it would only take a minute’, or something like that.
</blockquote>
Johnson and other Western leaders were trying to dissuade Russia from attacking Ukraine and the British PM emerged as one of President Volodymyr Zelensky’s strongest supporters.
Before the invasion, Johnson claimed he was at pains to tell Putin that there was no imminent prospect of Ukraine joining NATO.
He warned the Russian President that any invasion would mean “more NATO, not less NATO” on Russia’s borders. Said Johnson:
<blockquote>
He said, ‘Boris, you say that Ukraine is not going to join NATO any time soon. ‘What is any time soon?’
And I said, ‘well it’s not going to join NATO for the foreseeable future. You know that perfectly well’.
I think from the very relaxed tone that he was taking and the sort of air of detachment that he seemed to have, he was just playing along with my attempts to get him to negotiate.
</blockquote>
The BBC documentary also reveals that Zelensky asked for weapons from NATO countries to stop the Russian invasion. | <a href="https://www.kyivpost.com/post/11628">Kyiv Post</a>

Former UK Prime Minister Claims Putin Threatened To Kill Him In Missile Strike

A retired teacher has been charged with sexually assaulting a child at a British school where he taught would-be prime minister Boris Johnson.
David Price will face trial in South Africa, where he taught after leaving England in the 1980s.
A former pupil in South Africa contacted the police in December after learning of the earlier allegations in Radio 4’s In Dark Corners series.
Mr Price, 76, denies the charges, according to BBC News.
There are 42 allegations against him in total.
Journalist Alex Renton, who was taught by Mr Price, has spoken to six men who allege they were sexually assaulted by the teacher at Ashdown House in East Sussex in the 1970s. 
After returning to his native South Africa, Mr Price continued to teach. 
He was arrested in the country by British police in 2019 and has since been fighting extradition to the UK.
The latest allegations relate to his time at a prestigious all-boys school in Cape Town in the 1980s.
The alleged victim contacted Mr Renton after seeing South African media coverage of the BBC’s In Dark Corners series – which investigated sexual abuse at Britain’s elite boarding schools.
He claims he was first groped by the teacher in 1985 at the age of about 10 while showering at Western Province Preparatory School in Cape Town.
He said he was made to touch the teacher’s genitals and was told he “can’t tell anyone, they’re not going to believe you.”
Mr Price left the school in December 1987. 
A spokeswoman says the school never received any complaints he sexually assaulted children. 
A court statement from the teacher in 2019 admits to “inappropriately” touching boys in the UK, but he denied having done so in South Africa. A later statement in 2021 appears to retract this admission.

UK: Liz Truss Tenders Her Resignation To King Charles, Sunak Becomes Prime Minister

Former United Kingdom Prime Minister (PM), Boris Johnson has pulled out of the race to succeed Liz Truss saying he cannot unite the warring Conservative Party.
Johnson had the public support of 59 MPs but required 100 to continue in the contest.
But Penny Mordaunt, Rishi Sunak’s only remaining rival in the race to become the next prime minister – signalled she would not withdraw from the process, according to UK-based The Telegraph.
The race is now wide open for Sunak, the former chancellor, who has more than 140 Tory MPs backing him. Mordaunt lags behind with the public support of 26.
Johnson said he had “reached out” to leadership rivals Sunak and Mordaunt to see if they could work together in the national interest, but it had not proved possible.
In a statement, Boris insisted he had secured the 100 nominations needed to get onto the ballot paper, and that if he stood there was a, “very good chance” he would be back in Downing Street by the end of the week. He added: 
<blockquote>
But in the course of the last days I have sadly come to the conclusion that this would simply not be the right thing to do. You can’t govern effectively unless you have a united party in Parliament.
And though I have reached out to both Rishi and Penny – because I hoped that we could come together in the national interest – we have sadly not been able to work out a way of doing this.
Therefore I am afraid the best thing is that I do not allow my nomination to go forward and commit my support to whoever succeeds.
</blockquote>
While Sunak is now the clear favourite, a source from Mordaunt’s campaign told The Telegraph that she was “still running” for the post.
Sunak said he would always be “grateful” to Johnson over Brexit, the vaccine rollout and the response to Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine.

Boris Johnson Pulls Out Of Race To Replace Liz Truss As Prime Minister

The Liberal Democrats, a UK opposition party, has urged the ruling Conservative party to ban former Prime Minister Boris Johnson from standing for leadership again.
This follows the resignation of Liz Truss on Thursday after only 44 days in office.
Truss was voted Prime Minister by members of the Conservative party Johnson following his after a string of scandals.
Johnson is among Tories who are thought to be interested in taking over from Truss, but the Lib Dems say that should not be allowed to happen.
In a statement the Lib Dem deputy leader Daisy Cooper said:
<blockquote>
The fact that Conservative MPs are even considering putting Boris Johnson back in Number 10 shows how out of touch they really are. They think there’s one rule for them and another for everyone else.
Boris Johnson was forced to resign in disgrace after countless lies, scandals and failures. He shattered public trust in the government and plunged the UK into a political crisis. He must never be allowed near Downing Street again.

Boris Johnson Meets Queen Elizabeth, Tenders His Resignation As Prime Minister

Britain’s Conservative Party has named Foreign Secretary Liz Truss as its leader triggering the beginning of a handover from Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
She is taking power as Britain’s next prime minister at a time when the country faces a cost-of-living crisis, industrial unrest and a recession.
The announcement that was made on Monday came after weeks of an often bad-tempered and divisive party leadership contest that pitted Truss against Rishi Sunak, a former finance minister.
Johnson was forced to announce his resignation in July after months of scandal and he will travel to Scotland to meet Queen Elizabeth on Tuesday to officially tender his resignation.
His successor will follow him and be asked to form a government.
In a short victory speech at the announcement in a central London convention hall, Truss said it was an “honour” to be elected after undergoing “one of the longest job interviews in history”. 
Al Jazeera’s Jonah Hull, reporting from London, said Truss won not as resoundingly as the opinion polls might have earlier suggested. He said:
<blockquote>
She picked up 57 per cent of eligible votes among Conservative Party members. Rishi Sunak, former chancellor of the exchequer, got 42 per cent.
She promised that she campaigned as a Conservative and she will govern as a Conservative, she promised to cut taxes, to grow the economy, she promised to deal with the energy crisis.
</blockquote>
Truss became the Conservatives’ fourth prime minister since a 2015 election.
Over that period the country has been buffeted from crisis to crisis, and now faces what is forecast to be a long recession triggered by sky-rocketing inflation which hit 10.1 per cent in July.

British's Conservative Party Picks Liz Truss To Replace Boris Johnson As Prime Minister

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has resigned as leader of the Conservative party.
Johnson signalled his intention to quit as Prime Minister, saying the process of selecting a new party leader will begin next week, with a new Prime Minister expected to be in place by the Autumn.
In a statement outside Downing Street this Thursday, Johnson blamed the “herd instinct” of Tory MPs for pushing him out of office, after a series of cabinet ministers told him he had lost the support of the party.
Johnson’s resignation comes following dozens of resignations from his government, including former chancellor Rishi Sunak.
Sunak’s replacement, Nadhim Zahawi, also called for Johnson to go.
Sunak, Ben Wallace, Liz Truss, Sajid Javid, Penny Mordaunt, Jeremy Hunt, Tom Tugendhat, and Suella Braverman are likely to be among those who will stand to become the Prime Minister.
Johnson’s exit follows three years of scandals, including anger over his handling of harassment allegations against Chris Pincher, the deputy chief whip; a police fine over lockdown parties in Downing Street, attempts to change the standards system, and accusations of breaking international law.
He became prime minister in 2019, taking over from Theresa May with a promise to “get Brexit done”.
Johnson won an 80-seat majority in a general election in December 2019 and took the UK out of the EU.

Boris Johnson Resigns As Leader Of UK's Ruling Party

British Finance Minister Rishi Sunak has resigned from the cabinet citing differences in economic approaches with Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
His resignation came shortly after Health Secretary Sajid Javid had also resigned. The resignations came after Boris Johnson apologised on Tuesday evening, for appointing Chris Pincher as deputy chief whip, despite belatedly admitting having known that Pincher was found to have behaved inappropriately in 2019. Pincher resigned on Friday evening after admitting to getting drunk, and being accused of groping young men.
In his resignation letter, Javid said: “The tone you set as a leader, and the values you represent, reflect on your colleagues, your party and ultimately the country. <a data-link-name="in body link" href="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/conservatives">Conservatives</a> at their best are seen as hard-headed decision-makers, guided by strong values.”
Sunak also highlighted differences of opinion about economic management between him and Johnson, in the run-up to a joint speech the pair had planned in the weeks ahead. Pindula News presents Sunak’s resignation letter in full below:
<blockquote>
Dear Prime Minister
It is with deep sadness that I am writing to you to resign from the Government.
It has been an enormous privilege to serve our country as Chancellor of the Exchequer and I will always be proud of how during the pandemic we protected people’s jobs and businesses through actions such as furlough.
To leave ministerial office is a serious matter at any time. For me to step down as Chancellor while the world is suffering the economic consequences of the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and other serious challenges is a decision that I have not taken lightly.
However, the public rightly expects government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously. I recognise this may be my last ministerial job, but I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning.
I have been loyal to you. I backed you to become Leader of our Party and encouraged others to do so. I have served as your Chancellor with gratitude that you entrusted me with stewardship of the nation’s economy and finances. Above all, I have respected the powerful mandate given to you by the British people in 2019 and how under your leadership we broke the Brexit deadlock.
That is why I have always tried to compromise in order to deliver the things you want to achieve. On those occasions where I disagreed with you privately, I have supported you publicly. That is the nature of the collective government upon which our system relies and it is particularly important that the Prime Minister and Chancellor remain united in hard times such as those we are experiencing today.
Our country is facing immense challenges. We both want a low-tax, high-growth economy, and world-class public services, but this can only be responsibly delivered if we are prepared to work hard, make sacrifices and take difficult decisions.
I firmly believe the public are ready to hear that truth. Our people know that if something is too good to be true then it’s not true. They need to know that whilst there is a path to a better future, it is not an easy one. In preparation for our proposed joint speech on the economy next week, it has become clear to me that our approaches are fundamentally too different.
I am sad to be leaving Government but I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that we cannot continue like this.

UK Finance Minister Resigns Over PM Boris Johnson's Leadership Style

British airlines have been banned from landing at Russia’s airports and from crossing its airspace, the Russian civil aviation regulator has said.
Russia said the move was a response to “the unfriendly decisions by the UK aviation authorities”.
On Thursday, the UK banned Russia’s national airline Aeroflot from landing in Britain, a measure that was part of sanctions introduced following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace told ITV: 
<blockquote>
I think that’s their retaliation for us yesterday banning Aeroflot from using and landing in the United Kingdom. That’s their tit for tat response.
</blockquote>
Russia’s civil aviation authority Rosaviatsia said: 
<blockquote>
This measure was taken in accordance with the provisions of the Intergovernmental Air Services Agreement between Russia and the UK as a response to unfriendly decisions by the UK aviation authorities regarding the restriction on regular flights of aircraft owned, leased or operated by a person associated with Russia or registered in Russia.
</blockquote>
British Airways said in a statement it was notifying customers on cancelled services and would offer full refunds. The airline said:
<blockquote>
We apologise for the inconvenience but this is clearly a matter beyond our control. We will continue to monitor the situation closely.
</blockquote>
Data provider Cirium said Aeroflot and British Airways were the only carriers flying passengers between the UK and Russia over the past week.
Aeroflot had 16 flights scheduled between London Heathrow and Moscow Sheremetyevo International Airport, while British Airways had eight.
Manchester United terminated their sponsorship deal with the Russian airline. Aeroflot had been United’s official carrier since 2013 and the latest deal was due to run until 2023. United renewed the deal in 2015, signing a five-year extension reported to be worth $40m (£29.9m).
Aeroflot has been running more passenger services between the UK and Russia than British Airways. So in that regard, it is more affected than its British counterpart.
However, Russia’s restrictions go further than the UK’s in that it is also banning British airlines from crossing its airspace. That means re-routing some flights, adding time and fuel costs.

UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson has said the United Kingdom was working with its allies to ensure that this hideous and barbaric venture of Vladimir Putin must end in failure. His remarks come after Russia attacked Ukraine on Thursday. Pindula News presents Johnson’s full address:
<blockquote>
Shortly after 4 o’clock this morning I spoke to president Zelenskyy of Ukraine to offer the continued support of the UK because our worst fears have now come true and all our warnings have proved tragically accurate
President Putin of Russia has unleashed war in our European continent. He has attacked a friendly country without any provocation and without any credible excuse
Innumerable missiles and bombs have been raining down on an entirely innocent population
A vast invasion is underway by land by sea and by air.
And this is not in the infamous phrase some faraway country of which we know little
We have Ukrainian friends in this country; neighbours, co-workers
Ukraine is a country that for decades has enjoyed freedom and democracy and the right to choose its own destiny
We – and the world – cannot allow that freedom just to be snuffed out. We cannot and will not just look away.
It is because we have been so alarmed in recent months at the Russian intimidation that the UK became one of the first countries in Europe to send defensive weaponry to help the Ukrainians
Other allies have now done the same and we will do what more we can in the days ahead
Today in concert with our allies we will agree a massive package of economic sanctions designed in time to hobble the Russian economy
And to that end we must also collectively cease the dependence on Russian oil and gas that for too long has given Putin his grip on western politics
Our mission is clear
Diplomatically, politically, economically – and eventually, militarily – this hideous and barbaric venture of Vladimir Putin must end in failure
And so I say to the people of Russia, whose president has just authorised a tidal wave of violence against a fellow Slavic people
The parents of Russian soldiers who will lose their lives.
I cannot believe this is being done in your name or that you really want the pariah status it will bring to the Putin regime and I say to the Ukrainians in this moment of agony we are with you we are praying for you and your families and we are on your side
And if the months ahead are grim, and the flame of freedom burns low
I know that it will blaze bright again in Ukraine because for all his bombs and tanks and missiles I don’t believe that the Russian dictator will ever subdue the national feeling of the Ukrainians and their passionate belief that their country should be free
and I say to the British people and all who have heard the threats from Putin against those who stand with Ukraine we will of course do everything to keep our country safe
We are joined in our outrage by friends and allies around the world
We will work with them – for however long it takes – to ensure that the sovereignty and independence of Ukraine is restored because this act of wanton and reckless aggression is an attack not just on Ukraine
It is an attack on democracy and freedom in East Europe and around the world
This crisis is about the right of a free, sovereign independent European people to choose their own future and that is a right that the UK will always defend.

This Hideous & Barbaric Venture Of Vladimir Putin Must End In Failure - Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has said the UK and its allies will respond to Russian “aggression” after Russia launched a “full-scale” invasion of its neighbour.
Russian president, Vladimir Putin announced a military operation in Ukraine on Thursday with explosions heard soon after in the capital and other parts of the country, prompting outrage from Joe Biden who warned of a “catastrophic loss of life”. 
Putin said in a television announcement shortly before 6:00 am (0300 GMT) in Moscow:
<blockquote>
I have made the decision of a military operation.
</blockquote>
He also called on Ukrainian soldiers to lay down their arms, and justified the invasion by claiming a “genocide” in Ukraine’s east.
The Kremlin had earlier said rebel leaders in eastern Ukraine had asked Moscow for military help against Kyiv. Speaking on the development, Johnson said:
<blockquote>
I am appalled by the horrific events in Ukraine and I have spoken to President Zelenskyy to discuss next steps. President Putin has chosen a path of bloodshed and destruction by launching this unprovoked attack on Ukraine. The UK and our allies will respond decisively.
</blockquote>
This comes after United States president, Joe Biden, had said Russia alone was responsible for the escalation. He said:
<blockquote>
Russia alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring, and the United States and its Allies and partners will respond in a united and decisive way. The world will hold Russia accountable.
</blockquote>
He added that the US will also coordinate with its NATO Allies to ensure a strong, united response that deters any aggression against the Alliance. 
Russia previously denied any plan to attack Ukraine but threatened unspecified “military-technical” action unless it received security guarantees, including a promise that its neighbour will never join NATO.

French President Emmanuel Macron Contracts COVID-19

United Kingdom (UK) Prime Minister Mr Boris Johnson has hinted on the possibility of extending the lockdown as that country has been hit by the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic.
Johnson announced on Saturday that new restrictions across England would kick in after midnight on Thursday morning and last until Dec. 2.
UK has the biggest official death toll in Europe from COVID-19 and of late, it has been struggling to contain more than 20 000 new coronavirus cases a day amid warnings by scientists that a worst-case scenario of 80 000 fatalities this winter.
Senior cabinet minister Michael Gove told Sky News that he foresees the lockdown being extended beyond early December unless action is taken now. He said
<blockquote>We can definitively say that unless we take action now, the (health service) is going to be overwhelmed in ways that none of us could countenance.</blockquote>
The new lockdown announcement came 10 days after Johnson told parliament it would “make no sense at all” to “turn the lights out with a full national lockdown”.
<a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2020/10/21/more-brits-join-the-borisout-campaign-2/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Johnson’s critics want him out</a> for being indecisive at the expense of both the public’s lives and the economy.

Boris Johnson Warns UK Lockdown Could Be Extended

Many United Kingdom citizens have joined the #BorisOut campaign which seeks the ouster of Prime Minister Boris Johnson who is persecuted for the way he is handling the coronavirus.
The #BorisOut campaign is initiated after Mr Johnson has imposed a “very high” coronavirus alert level, Tier 3 on Greater Manchester as a measure to curb the spread of the coronavirus that has been on an upward trend in recent weeks.
Mr Johnson said he had no option but to take the tough decision as lockdown regulations were being violated. He said:
<blockquote>That means that pubs and bars must close, unless they are serving substantial meals, households can’t mix in doors, or in most outdoor settings.
In some public outdoor spaces groups must be limited to the rule of six.
And, we strongly advise against travel into and out of the area.</blockquote>
The citizenry say stringent measures will eventually take its toll on the economy resulting in deteriorating living standards as the majority’s sources of income would have been blocked.
Johnson says areas will come out of Tier 3 ‘when they are able to make progress’ as far as the rate of infections is concerned.
He said the measures that are put in place are reviewed every 28 days.

Councillor Sheila Oakes, who is the mayor for the Derbyshire town of Heanor, wrote on Facebook that “Johnson completely deserves this” and has defended her actions saying she posted without thinking and later on deleted her post and apologised.
Her other employer VHS Fletchers Solicitors said in a statement:
<blockquote>To wish illness upon anyone must be abhorrent to all right thinking members of the public. (Her views are) not shared by the partners or any other members of staff.</blockquote>
Boris Johnson is now out of the ICU after he was moved into intensive care after his condition deteriorated.

UK Mayor Who Said Boris Johnson Deserved COVID-19 Lose Her Paralegal Job At A UK Law Firm

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (UK) Boris Johnson this Thursday left the intensive care unit and is now back in the regular hospital ward where he will be closely observed.
Johnson was admitted to St Thomas’ Hospital on Sunday evening with a persistent high temperature and cough, and was rushed to intensive care on Monday where he spent three nights receiving treatment.
In a statement, a spokesman from Johnson’s office said:
<blockquote>The prime minister has been moved this evening from intensive care back to the ward, where he will receive close monitoring during the early phase of his recovery,” 
He is in extremely good spirits.</blockquote>
Johnson was the first world leader to be hospitalised with the coronavirus, forcing him to hand control of the country to foreign minister Dominic Raab.
The government statement did not indicate when Johnson may be able to resume leadership, and Raab, speaking before the latest announcement, had stressed the importance of allowing the prime minister to focus on recovery.

He had “persistent symptoms” – including a temperature.
Meanwhile, Johnson remains in charge of the government, but the foreign secretary, Dominic Raab, is expected to chair a coronavirus meeting on Monday morning.
In a statement, a Downing Street spokeswoman said:
<blockquote>On the advice of his doctor, the prime minister has tonight been admitted to hospital for tests.
This is a precautionary step, as the prime minister continues to have persistent symptoms of coronavirus 10 days after testing positive for the virus.
The prime minister thanks NHS staff for all of their incredible hard work and urges the public to continue to follow the government’s advice to stay at home, protect the NHS and save lives.</blockquote>

British PM Admitted To Hospital Over 'Persistent' Coronavirus Symptoms

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has tested positive for coronavirus. 10 Downing Street has, however, said Johnson will continue to lead government response to the crisis.
Johnson posted a statement on Twitter confirming the development and said that he had developed mild symptoms over the last 24 hours and tested positive for coronavirus. <a href="https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1243496858095411200" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">He wrote</a>:
<blockquote>Over the last 24 hours, I have developed mild symptoms and tested positive for coronavirus. I am now self-isolating, but I will continue to lead the government’s response via video-conference as we fight this virus. Together we will beat this.</blockquote>
According to Kate Proctor, Johnson will self-isolate for seven days in No 11 Downing Street. His meals will be left outside the door for him so he won’t come into contact with others.
Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-52058788" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BBC</a> reports that Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel is self-isolating after a doctor who gave her a vaccination tested positive while Canada’s Justin Trudeau is also self-isolating with his wife Sophie after she tested positive following a trip to London.

The United Kingdom has finally left the European Union. Britain could have left the Union on 29 March 2019 but UK Conservative MPs voted against BREXIT three times leading to the resignation of then Prime Minister, Theresa May.
A public vote (known as a referendum) was held in June 2016, <a class="story-body__link" href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/politics/eu_referendum/results">when 17.4 million people opted for Brexit</a>. This gave the Leave side 52%, compared with 48% for Remain.
BREXIT has now just entered into a transition period is meant to give both sides some breathing space while a new free trade agreement is negotiated.
Aside from trade, many other aspects of the future UK-EU relationship will also need to be decided. For example:
<ul class="story-body__unordered-list">
<li class="story-body__list-item">Law enforcement, data sharing and security</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Aviation standards and safety</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Access to fishing waters</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Supplies of electricity and gas</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Licensing and regulation of medicines</li>
</ul>
Prime Minister Boris Johnson insists the transition period will not be extended, but the European Commission has warned that the timetable will be extremely challenging.

WATCH: BREXIT - UK Finally Leaves The European Union, What's Next?

The bill implementing Britain’s exit deal with the European Union has this Thursday become an official UK law after it received royal assent from the Queen, Elizabeth II and having cleared all its stages in parliament.
The bill which was being pushed by UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson becomes law ahead of the country’s departure from the European Union next week.
The legislation passed its final parliamentary stage on Wednesday, after more than three years of bitter wrangling over how, when and even if Brexit should take place.
A consent vote in the EU Parliament will take place on Jan 29. Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to formally sign the Withdrawal Agreement in the coming days.
Speaking on the development, Prime Minister Johnson said:
<blockquote><a class="u-underline" data-link-name="in body link" href="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2020/jan/23/brexit-boris-johnson-labour-leadershiop-eu-official-tells-johnson-to-face-dose-of-realism-as-he-claims-brexit-now-crossing-finish-line--live-news">At times it felt like we would never cross the Brexit finish line, but we’ve done it.</a></blockquote>
Failure to secure Brexit is one of the main reasons that forced Johnson’s predecessor, <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/06/07/5-reasons-why-theresa-may-is-resigning-today/">Theresa May to resign.</a>

WATCH: Boris Johnson's Landslide Victory

Health and Child Care Minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Obadiah_Moyo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Obadiah Moyo</a> has played down suggestions that hundreds of Zimbabwean doctors who were recently fired by the government could be lured to work in the United Kingdom.
Responding to questions at a post-cabinet media briefing in Harare on Tuesday, Moyo declared that the UK is a sovereign state and can do as it pleases. He said:
<blockquote>We must take note that the British government has always been advertising for courses to recruit people from overseas; it is a continuous process.
So, the industrial action, incapacitation, whatever you may call it, it just merely coincide. This is an ongoing practice of the British government.</blockquote>
With Britain inching towards Brexit, Prime Minister Boris Johnson this week promised to accelerate his country’s National Health Services (NHS) visas to make it easier for doctors and nurses from other countries to work in the UK.

Zim Govt Unmoved By Reports That Britain Could Lure Fired Doctors

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s special envoys, Harriet Mathews and Debbie Palmer, told reporters immediately after meeting with President Mnangagwa that they came to Zimbabwe on a fact-finding mission.
Mathews, the director for Africa at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), and Palmer, the director for West and Southern Africa in the Department for International Development (DFID), were accompanied by UK ambassador to Zimbabwe Melanie Robinson.
Matthews told reporters that they will report to Prime Minister Johnson what they discovered in Zimbabwe.
<blockquote>We are doing this on the political, economic and humanitarian front. The first issue of concern, I think, is a call for a real step towards change and for government to step up in terms of political and economic reforms.
The government also needs to step up and address issues to do with human rights abuses and corruption.</blockquote>
These remarks come when Zimbabwe is trying to mend relations with the Western state and allies who have asked the country to implement political and economic reforms as a prerequisite.
Zimbabwe is also pushing to be readmitted into the Commonwealth and the UK has a huge say in the matter.
