Boris Johnson Undergoes Surgery

Boris Johnson has undergone surgery on a sinus problem this morning, No10 has revealed.

The Prime Minister had a ‘minor’ operation under general anaesthetic at an unspecified London NHS hospital early today and is now resting in Downing Street, his spokesman said.

He left home at 6am and was back in Westminster by 10am without using an ambulance after the procedure, which had been scheduled some time in advance.

It would be the first time the PM has been in hospital since he suffered from Covid in the spring of 2020, and his spokesman said the two were not related.

He told reporters today: ‘The PM had a minor routine operation related to his sinuses. ‘He will be resting this morning and I will update this afternoon.’

Significant decisions will be deferred to the Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab for the next 24 hours, he added.
