The Queen was "radiant" and "knowledgable" in her audience with former Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Tuesday, Johnson has said in the House of Commons.

Johnson told lawmakers the Queen's "impulse to do her duty carried her right through into her tenth decade, to the very moment in Balmoral only three days ago when she saw off her 14th Prime Minister and welcomed her 15th."

"I can tell you in that audience, she was as radiant and as knowledgable and as fascinated by politics as ever I can remember — and as wise in her advice as anyone I know, if not wiser," Johnson said.

The Queen met Johnson to formally accept his resignation as Prime Minister on Tuesday, and moments she later welcomed his successor Liz Truss. It was her final official duty as monarch.
