Boris Johnson won the Tories a landslide 80-seat majority in 2019 and weathered the country through the storms of Covid and the start of Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine.
While he was widely criticised for breaking his own party’s lockdown rules, even his worst critics offered praise for getting Brexit done and putting an end to years of stalemate between the UK and EU.
Liz Truss only came into power in September but she already appears to be on shaky ground with voters after a series of embarrassing economic U-turns.
She appointed Kwasi Kwarteng as Chancellor but removed him after just 38 days due to fierce backlash to his tax-slashing mini-budget.
Under Ms Truss’s leadership, the Conservative Party has been decimated in the polls and Labour is looking more like a government-in-waiting than ever before.
Sir Keir Starmer blamed the Prime Minister directly for Britain’s economic worries when he said: “Liz Truss’ reckless approach has crashed the economy, causing mortgages to skyrocket, and has undermined Britain’s standing on the world stage.”
All this turmoil has led to calls for Mr Johnson to return to Downing Street and start trying to reduce the financial pressures on families across the country.
A recent poll by Express.co.uk added to this view and showed that readers are overwhelmingly in favour of Mr Johnson making a comeback.
So, should Boris return as Prime Minister?
