Boris Johnson, who led the UK out of the European Union and still remains popular within the governing Conservative party, said he will struggle to support a revised Brexit deal seen as key to mending ties with the country’s biggest trading partner.

“I’m going to find it very difficult to vote for something like this myself, because I believed we should’ve done something very different, no matter how much plaster came off the ceiling in Brussels,” the former leader told the Global Soft Power Summit in London on Thursday.

Sunak ditched a flagship piece of legislation, introduced by Johnson, which would have unilaterally ripped up parts of the current Brexit arrangements with the EU. So far, his revisions pertaining to Northern Ireland have been well-received by Tory members of Parliament, including some ardent Brexit supporters.

“This is the EU graciously unbending to allow us to do what we want to do in our own country, not by our laws, but by theirs.”
