Stanley Johnson, the father of British PM Boris Johnson has received nods from across Europe after his bid for French citizenship following Britain’s departure from the EU.
Previously a British MP who backed the UK’s stay in the Union, Johnson received praise by French secretary for European Affairs Clement Beaune, who highlighted that this move is a sign that most Britons still love Europe.
Johnson, 80, is the son of a French-born mother and grandmother, stating that his bid for French citizenship was an act of reclaiming what he once had.
