A crisis is unfolding within the ruling Conservative Party of Great Britain, when Prime Minister Boris Johnson handed over power to the leader of the opposition Labour Party, Keir Starmer. Johnson stated that he intends for Starmer to take on a role as his new creative advisor to help develop stronger policies in the fields of economics and ecology.
Following the confirmation of this information, speculation started about possible motives of Johnson and the consequences for the Conservative Party. One of the suggested scenarios discussed by analysts is Johnson's attempt to reshape the opposition's camp and weaken their positions ahead of the upcoming elections.
Starmer, for his part, is refraining from comments and has not confirmed whether he accepted the proposal from Johnson. However, his representatives have pointed out that any acceptance of the proposal will depend on what exactly the role Starmer will have in the framework of the new position and how it will affect the functioning of his party.
