'Past is the past': Rishi Sunak ducks question on Boris Johnson returning to cabinet

The UK's prime minister was asked about his predecessor Boris Johnson during an interview with ConservativeHome on Thursday.

He said 'the past is the past' and that Johnson resigned over economic policy when questioned over whether he could be trusted after helping to bring down the former prime minister. Sunak was then asked whetherJohnson would be returning to cabinet, in which he dodged the question and said he would not comment on reshuffles. He then went on to say: 'It's great that we've got former prime ministers who want to contribute to public life'

If the past is the past, will you stop talking about labours record on things, Rishi?

Rishi resigned as Chancellor. How does that bring down the whole Boris Govt? Boris should've just appointed another Chancellor. Simple

0:15 look at that how much he is puffed up, this PM is being so polite with these kinds of reporters

Sunak has to learn from some personalities like Prabhupada and Elon Musk how to deal with these kind of unethical reporters.
