LONDON (Bywire News) - In a turn of events that has left many political analysts scratching their heads, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced his intention to join GB News as a presenter. While Johnson asserts that he is excited to offer his "unvarnished views" on international and domestic issues, critics are questioning whether a media outlet should serve as an extension of a political persona. The announcement was made via a video clip on X, formerly known as Twitter, where Johnson delved into a wide range of topics he plans to address, including Russia, China, the conflict in Ukraine, and the future prospects for the United Kingdom.

The announcement raises new questions about the political stability within the Conservative Party, especially on the heels of two recent by-election defeats. Blunt disclosed, "I am confirming that MP was me. The fact of the arrest requires a formal notification of the Speaker and then my Chief Whip." The MP insists that his arrest was "unnecessary" and has expressed his willingness to fully cooperate with ongoing police inquiries, stating he is confident the investigation will conclude without any charges. Surrey Police corroborated the MP’s statement, revealing that a man was detained in Horley on Wednesday morning. He has since been released on conditional police bail, pending further investigations. The Tory party has opted for silence, declining to comment on the unfolding situation....
