PM Attends Hospital For Sinus Surgery, Leaving Raab In Charge

The prime minister was put under general anaesthetic and is now resting at home, with Dominic Raab, as deputy prime minister, put in charge of taking any significant decisions while he recovers.

Johnson's spokesperson said whether he would return to work on Tuesday depended on "how he feels" but he was still expected to attend the Commonwealth heads of government meeting in Rwanda later this week.

No 10 said the operation was a success and had been scheduled "for a while". Johnson was driven to hospital at around 6am yesterday and returned home by 10am.
