Boris Johnson is on a farewell tour and it’s left some people bemused

"The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime," tweeted Danny Wallace in response.

There are a lot of issues facing the UK at the moment, so our outgoing PM has decided to go on a farewell tour of the nation.

However, is it actually a comeback tour?

Yes, this is not a joke.

Boris Johnson will kick off a farewell tour of Britain today as he spends his last week as prime minister highlighting his achievements in 10 Downing Street https://t.co/NJnXoV9SJn

— Times Politics (@timespolitics) August 30, 2022

He has refused to rule out a political comeback as he faced his final few days in No 10.

On a visit to Dorset, he declined to be drawn on what he will do when is replaced as prime minister by either Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak.

The outgoing Prime Minister instead put his focus on the expansion of gigabit-speed broadband, as he sought to emphasise his Government’s achievements.

Asked if he would rule out a comeback, Mr Johnson told reporters: “I think on the whole people in this country are more interested in their gigabit broadband than they are in the fate of this or that politician.”

'If he was a great Prime Minister, why did they get rid of him?'

Former Labour advisor Tom Hamilton is 'not convinced' that Boris Johnson will 'bow out gracefully' as the PM is on a farewell tour of Britain.

Perfect encapsulation of his premiership. Goes on an endless holiday rather than cementing his legacy. Then does a tour celebrating the legacy which does not exist, because he never did anything to secure it. https://t.co/SI3nKa0MhE
