Humiliating photos have been circulating on social media showing Boris Johnson speaking to a near-empty room at the Republican National Convention.
Pictures obtained by the Mirror show the ex-prime minister addressing just a handful of people in a hotel ballroom in Milwaukee.
Johnson was booked to speak about UK and US elections alongside Kellyanne Conway, who served as a White House adviser when Donald Trump was President and now hosts a Fox News show.
But hardly anyone bothered to show up to see what they had to say.
More than 50,000 people are due in Milwaukee for the convention, where Liz Truss and Nigel Farage are also set to be in attendance.
Truss, who briefly succeeded Johnson as PM, posted on Twitter/X on Monday that it was “great” to be at the convention as she endorsed Donald Trump as the “leadership the West needs”.
Johnson has also backed Trump, saying his return could be a ‘big win for the world’.
