Iran Press/ Europe: Former prime minister Boris Johnson plans to stand again as a Member of Parliament for Uxbridge and South Ruislip at the next general election in 2024.
Johnson has been the MP for the West London constituency since 2015, winning with majorities of 5,034 in 2017 and 7,210 in 2019, by which time he was Prime Minister.
A source has confirmed Johnson's decision to stand for the fourth time after the Telegraph first reported that he told his local Conservative Party of this intention.
The former prime minister resigned from his post in July after he was hit by several scandals, including Partygate and his handling of the groping allegations made by the former chief whip Chris Pincher - events which in part led to a mass exodus of ministerial resignations.
