BORIS Johnson has paid a glowing tribute to the Queen, praising her “leadership and wisdom” over 70 years.
The Prime Minister said the Platinum Jubilee this week would mark her “exemplary service” as monarch.
And he said it would be a moment for the country to celebrate the institution of the Crown and the “exceptional individual” who wore it.
The PM added: “She has led this country through good times and bad, inspiring people to serve others and their communities to create the pride and allegiance that unites us all.
“And her outstanding service extends far beyond these shores.
“She has offered counsel to more than 170 heads of government and has undertaken more than 21,000 official engagements in well over a hundred countries.”
