Boris Johnson's tenure as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom began on July, 24, 2019, when he accepted an invitation from Queen Elizabeth II to form a Government, succeeding Theresa May, and it officially ended in September 2022 upon his resignation.

Announcing his first major broadcast role, Boris said: “GB News is an insurgent channel with a loyal and growing following. I am excited to say I will be joining shortly - and offering my frank opinions on world affairs.”
