Candid behind the scenes pictures reveal Boris Johnson's first hours in Number 10



The candid snaps show the new PM preparing to enter Number 10 after years of scheming to get there

It was a day that Boris Johnson had no doubt wished for for most of his life.

The boy who once said his ambition was to be “king of the world” was finally entering Number 10 after a number of false starts.

But after his overwhelming success in a ballot of 160,000 Tory members, Mr Johnson was finally off to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen and be asked to form a government.

In these candid snaps the former Foreign Secretary can be seen preparing the speech he would deliver outside the world’s most famous front door and discussing the brutal cabinet reshuffle with his trusted aides.

The transition from Tory leadership candidate was captured by a private photographer Andrew Parsons who worked for David Cameron in the 2010 election.

He also took the nakedly posed snap of Mr Johnson writing his resignation letter as Foreign Secretary.
