After Boris Johnson’s long-time ally David Frost resigned after a week of political instability in the Conservative Party, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson selected Britain’s foreign minister, Liz Truss, to become the country’s principal negotiator with the European Union. According to a statement released by the prime minister’s office, Liz Truss will have ministerial responsibility with the European Union and will lead negotiations to resolve issues arising from terms of the Brexit agreement relating to trade with Northern Ireland. David Frost was dissatisfied with Boris Johnson government’s tax and COVID-19 policies. According to the report our correspondent in London gathered, Frost’s decision to resign was prompted by last week’s implementation of additional Covid-19 pandemic regulations, which included a need that people show proof of vaccination or a negative coronavirus test to access nightclubs and other packed locations. He (David Frost) stated in his resignation letter to the Prime minister that the United Kingdom should learn to live with COVID.
