God save the (King)
He's not a human being
and There's no future
And England's dreaming

"Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced he is joining GB News.

Mr Johnson, who stepped down as an MP earlier this year, will work for the news channel as a presenter, programme maker and commentator.

He will "play a key role" in coverage of the UK and US elections next year and will host a series "showcasing the power of Britain around the world", the broadcaster said.

Mr Johnson said he was "excited" to take up the new role on the channel.

In a video posted on X, formerly Twitter, Mr Johnson promised to share his "unvarnished views" on politics and global issues.

He said: "I am excited to say that I am shortly going to be joining you on GB News.

"I'm going to be giving this remarkable new TV channel my unvarnished views on everything from Russia, China, the war in Ukraine, how we meet all those challenges."

In a statement, he added: "I will be talking about the immense opportunities for Global Britain - as well as the challenges - and why our best days are yet to come."

Johnson, who also writes a column for the Daily Mail, is the latest Conservative politician to join the broadcaster, following former Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg, party deputy chairman Lee Anderson, and husband-and-wife MPs Esther McVey and Philip Davies."
