Boris Johnson promised on Tuesday to transform Britain rather than settle for the "status quo" after the coronavirus crisis by building more new homes, improving education, fighting crime and boosting the green economy.In a speech aimed at rallying his Conservative Party, which has become increasingly critical of its leader, Johnson laid out his vision for Britain, where deep-rooted inequality has been laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic.Using his own battle with weight loss which made a bout of COVID-19 more difficult to overcome as a metaphor for changing Britain, he listed the areas he wanted to tackle - housing, education, jobs, climate change and crime.But he offered few clues on funding and opposition parties criticised the speech for.
