Asked repeatedly during a television interview whether he could “rule out a comeback”, Mr Johnson failed to respond, insisting voters were not interested in “the fate of this or that politician”. His comments came as he visited Dorset at the start of a week-long “farewell tour” of regional visits to highlight the successes of his three-year tenure as prime minister. But his boasts of boosting rural access to high-speed broadband fell flat as it was confirmed that the government’s target has been downgraded to connecting 85% of homes and businesses by 2025, instead of the 100% promised in Conservative manifesto for 2019 election....
