What kind of Prime Minister would Boris Johnson make?

Published: July 18, 2019, 9:26 a.m.

With his unruly blond hair and shambolic appearance, Boris Johnson is Britain\u2019s best-known politician. He\u2019s also favourite to become the UK\u2019s next Prime Minister. To his supporters, the former Mayor of London is charismatic, entertaining and a man of the people. His critics say he\u2019s unprincipled, ruthless and flexible with the truth. If he wins the Conservative party leadership race, he\u2019ll have to deliver Brexit. But what kind of leader might he be and how will he unite the country? Becky Milligan talks to some of those who\u2019ve worked closely with him to find out what makes him tick.
