London \u2013 British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will seek to shore up his position on Tuesday by setting out a raft of new policies to senior ministers after he survived a confidence vote that revealed the scale of the threat to his position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We need to come together as a party and focus on what this government is doing to help people with the cost of living, to clear the COVID backlogs and to make our streets safer.

We will continue to unite, level up and strengthen our economy. pic.twitter.com\/vIWK81dDJC<\/a><\/p>— Boris Johnson (@BorisJohnson) June 6, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Johnson won the vote late on Monday by 211 votes to 148 \u2014 enough to avoid having to immediately resign but a larger than anticipated rebellion within his party that leaves him politically wounded and battling to win back the confidence of his colleagues and the general public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His first challenge will be to convince his most senior allies, some of whom would have likely run to replace him if he had been forced out, that he will be able to move on from questions about his leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johnson\u2019s office issued a statement saying he would use the meeting to set out his vision for the coming weeks, including new policies to reduce the cost of childcare and to help more people buy their own homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a government that delivers on what the people of this country care about most,\u201d Johnson said in the statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are on the side of hard-working British people, and we are going to get on with the job.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lawmakers in Johnson\u2019s party called the confidence vote after months of scandal over lockdown-breaking parties at the heart of government and criticism of his response to an inflation-fuelled surge in the cost of living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The front pages of British newspapers offered little comfort that the vote was, as Johnson described it in the aftermath on Monday, a decisive result that allows him to refocus on his political priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Daily Telegraph called the result a \u201chollow victory. The Sun tabloid declared \u201dPM survives \u2026 Just\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calling the result a \u201cpyrrhic victory\u201d, the Times leader column said the narrow win left Johnson\u2019s political authority badly dented and his party even more divided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf Mr Johnson is to avoid leading the Tories (Conservatives) to a calamitous defeat in the next election, he will need to show a degree of grip and focus that has been largely absent so far in his premiership \u2026 ,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rules of Johnson\u2019s Conservative Party mean he is safe from another confidence vote for the next 12 months, but those rules could technically be changed if there is enough political will to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2018, Johnson\u2019s predecessor Theresa May won a larger percentage of a similar confidence vote only to resign six months later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
