JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Floridant -- The Florida Forum Speaker Series, presented by The Women's Board of Wolfson Children's Hospital, will welcome Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Journalist and Author Rt Hon Boris Johnson on Oct. 29, 2024. The program begins at 7 p.m. at the Jacksonville Center for the Performing Arts.
The moderator for Mr. Johnson's program is John Delaney, President of Flagler College, and former University of North Florida President and Jacksonville Mayor.
"Jacksonville is recognized for its strong business ties to the UK and for its world-class healthcare," said Mr. Johnson. "It is a sincere pleasure to participate in this program to benefit Wolfson Children's Hospital."
Mr. Johnson has served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Leader of the Conservative Party, Foreign Secretary and Mayor of London. In 2019, he led the Conservative Party to an election victory, winning their biggest majority in the House of Commons since 1987 and the highest share of the vote of any party since 1979. The UK's exit from the European Union was Mr. Johnson's first major achievement in Downing Street. Under his leadership, the UK restored sovereign control over its borders, economy and law-making. When Covid-19 struck, he led the UK through the darkest days of the pandemic. Under Mr. Johnson's leadership, the UK emerged from the global crisis as the fastest growing economy in the G7.

In addition to his work in politics, Mr. Johnson is an award-winning journalist, writer and editor.
