By Jake Kanter International TV Editor Boris Johnson has returned to work as UK prime minister, two weeks after being discharged from hospital where he was treated in intensive care for coronavirus.

Britain’s leader made a short address to the nation on the steps of 10 Downing Street on Monday to mark his return to office.

He argued that the UK is “beginning to turn the tide” on COVID-19, but urged people to continue observing the government’s strict lockdown rules.

He said: “If this virus were a physical assailant, an unexpected and invisible mugger — which I can tell you from personal experience, it is — then this is the moment when we have begun together to wrestle it to the floor.
