UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace on Friday ruled himself out of the race to be the next UK Prime Minister, adding that he is "leaning towards" supporting former PM Boris Johnson, reported Sky News. This will pave way for Johnson's expected bid to return as prime minister after Liz Truss resigned as UK PM on Thursday after weeks of financial turmoil sparked by her mini-budget.
