UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson set to return to work and is 'raring to go' after beating coronavirus

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson will return to work in Downing Street on Monday morning after beating coronavirus, it is reported.

He is said to have told Cabinet colleagues that he is "raring to go".

If doctors give him the OK, Mr Johnson, 55, could host Monday's daily briefing in Downing Street and face new UK Labour leader Keir Starmer for the first time at Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday, Sky News reported.

The UK leader has been recovering and taking on some work at Chequers, his country retreat in Buckinghamshire, after being released from hospital.

A Downing Street source told Sky News: "He is 'raring to go' and will be back Monday.
