Boris Johnson got to work rearranging his cabinet team 'within milliseconds' of walking into Number 10, according to Andrew Parsons, the photographer who has been one step behind him for over a decade
Boris Johnson: Behind the picturesYou've just given your first speech on the steps of Downing Street and entered that famous black door for the first time as prime minister, so what do you do next?
If you're David Cameron or Theresa May you greet your new staff and then you sit down at your new desk in your new home and you take it all in. If you're Mr Cameron you do it while holding your forehead in disbelief.
Speaking to Sky News, Mr Parsons told of those first few minutes in Downing Street and the seriousness which fell over the room as Mr Johnson started building his team."The most interesting part of it is I get to see the side of Boris normal people don't associate him with, the serious side", he said.The others, he added, had taken the time to understand what that moment had meant, but Mr Johnson went"straight into work mode".
