The PM has eased himself back into work over the past few days, holding calls with the Queen and Donald Trump.
He has been getting updates from stand-in Dominic Raab and Health Secretary Matt Hancock while recovering at Chequers from his stay in intensive care with Covid-19.
Mr Hancock today hinted that BoJo is champing at the bit to get back in to No10.
He said: “I spoke to him yesterday, he’s cheerful, and he’s ebullient and he’s definitely on the mend in a big way.
“When exactly he comes back is a matter for him and his doctors.”
PM SOUNDS ‘INCREDIBLE’
He added: “By his nature he is an extremely enthusiastic and hard- working guy and he doesn’t like slouching. Of course, this is an unprecedented crisis.
“However, having said that, he has followed his doctors’ advice and it is down to a conversation between the Prime Minister and his doctors as to exactly when he comes back.”
Donald Trump said the PM sounded “incredible” in their call.
He told a White House press briefing: “He was ready to go. I’m very surprised to tell you this.
“He’s like the old Boris — tremendous energy, tremendous drive.”
