Boris wants to step down as Prime Minister because it's like dragging a plane down a runway.

The Tory leader apparently sees the role as ‘too much like hard work’ and he’s keen to get back his first love of writing.

Fresh speculation has emerged about the PM’s future, following revelations by his ex-advisor Dominic Cummings yesterday.

Mr Cummings alleged his former boss doesn’t want to go ‘on and on’ in the role and may quit in five years, even if he wins the next election.

A source told the paper that the PM said: ‘This job is too much like hard work. It’s like pulling a giant 747 down the runway with a harness on your back. Every morning you get up and have to start pulling.

‘I do not want to go on and on like Thatcher and Blair. I want to get through this Parliament, win again and then head off soon afterwards.

‘I can’t wait till I can go back to writing, have fun and make money.
