BORIS Johnson has vowed that “absolutely nothing and no one” will stop him carrying on with his Downing Street job.

Two days after scraping through a leadership confidence vote, the PM delivered a barnstorming performance at the Commons Dispatch Box to banish any doubts about his determination to stay put.

He even joked that his political career had “only just begun”. Worryingly for his foes, he looked like he meant it.

Arriving for his first Commons grilling since his MPs voted by 211 to 148 to keep him as their leader, Mr Johnson was greeted with a roar of approval from Tory loyalists.
