果然下台!英國首相將宣佈辭職,英鎊、英十年期國債收益率短時拉昇
格隆匯 07-07 18:22

據英國媒體報道,鮑里斯·約翰遜 (Boris Johnson) 將於週四宣佈辭去英國保守黨黨首職務的職位以及英國首相一職,此前他所在的政黨發生了大規模的離職潮。

一位 10 號消息人士稱,約翰遜已與保守黨 1922 委員會主席格雷厄姆·布雷迪爵士(Sir Graham Brady)進行了交談,並同意下台,新的保守黨領袖將在 10 月的黨內會議上就位。

據《英國衞報》報道,唐寧街10號發言人説:“總理今天將向全國發表聲明。”

從英國財政部長和衞生部部長宣佈辭職到約翰遜計劃宣佈下台,這是在英國政壇最不尋常的 48小時,在這期間 50 多名部長和高級政府助手辭職,使英國政府幾乎處於癱瘓狀態。

官員們説,約翰遜先生將繼續留任,直到找到繼任者,這一過程可能需要幾個月的時間。

但約翰遜很可能面臨來自內閣和國會議員的巨大壓力,要求他進一步辭去首相職務,讓位給副首相多米尼克·拉布或約翰遜的前任特蕾莎·梅等看守領導人。

 值得一提的是,新任命的總理納迪姆·扎哈維(Nadhim Zahawi)就呼籲鮑里斯·約翰遜(Boris Johnson)離職。

約翰遜被拋棄

今年,約翰遜被發現在新冠疫情封鎖期間違法聚集,被倫敦警察廳罰款,據稱這是第一位英國首相出現違法被罰款的情況。

而後由約翰遜任命的保守黨副黨首克里斯·平徹(Chris Pincher)被曝出更多不端行為,引發輿論對約翰遜是否明知平徹的品行問題,仍對其任命的質疑。

在唐寧街承認首相在 2019 年就知道克里斯平徹有不當行為之前,政府部長已被派出在廣播中為約翰遜先生辯護,稱約翰遜不知道“具體”指控。

但最終,約翰遜還是為此道歉並表示任命平徹先生是一個“錯誤”,隨後衞生部長薩吉德賈維德和總理裏希蘇納克宣佈離職,並引發了英國政府官員的離職潮。

但在週三的首相提問中,約翰遜先生駁斥了辭職的呼籲,他説:“在困難的情況下,當他被賦予一項巨大的任務時,首相的工作就是繼續前進,這就是我要做的事情。 "

並且今天早些時候,一位 10 號高級消息人士吿訴天空新聞,總理仍然“絕對挑釁”,“不打算辭職”,並想“繼續戰鬥”。

截至發稿,英國十年期國債收益率上漲4.45%至2.1840%。

英鎊短線走高,英鎊兑美元上漲0.58%,報1.1999美元。

下一任接任者是誰?

如果約翰遜真的下台,那麼英國下一任首相誰的希望最大?

博彩公司Ladbrokes的賠率顯示,在黨內被視為支持英國脱歐、富有魅力和良好的領導素質的貿易部長Penny Mordaunt是接替約翰遜的最熱門人選;國防大臣Ben Wallace和前財政大臣Rishi Sunak是第二熱門人選;而外交大臣Liz Truss和前衞生與社會服務大臣Sajid Javid是第三熱門。

但根據 YouGov 對保守黨成員進行的一項新民意調查,國防部長Ben Wallace是贏得任何領導力競賽的熱門人選。
