Only the wallpaper appears to be staying. Removal men spent Monday loading up two lorries with the contents of the flat above Number 11 Downing Street that has been Boris and Carrie Johnson’s home for just over three years. The Johnsons avoided the trauma of watching their flat being stripped bare by remaining out of the country on holiday in Greece . Two removal trucks were needed to store possessions while the couple work out where they will live after Mr Johnson hands over power to his successor in the first week of September. They will spend the final weeks of his premiership at Chequers before, according to one source, moving temporarily into a house or apartment provided by a friend, or possibly a Conservative Party donor. The couple’s Victorian terraced home in Camberwell, south London , which was bought shortly before Mr Johnson became Prime Minister, is currently up for sale for £1.6 million.

Who is Liz Truss? The ‘new Iron lady’ and ‘continuity candidate’ vying to be PM
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss was seen as a frontrunner to replace Boris Johnson long before he resigned. MP for South West Norfolk since 2010, Ms Truss began climbing up the ministerial ladder soon after entering parliament, holding various cabinet positions under David Cameron, Theresa May and Mr Johnson. But her stock really began to rise when she was given the international trade brief in 2019, which saw her secure post-Brexit trade deals with Japan and Australia. With a reputation as someone who can "get things done", she was promoted to become the second female foreign secretary in history in September last year. Her key achievements in this role include securing the release of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe from detention in Iran, and introducing a slew of tough sanctions over Russia's war in Ukraine.
