Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has signed up to join TV channel GB News.
Johnson, who stepped down as an MP earlier this year, will work for the news channel as a presenter, programme maker and commentator.
He will "play a key role" in coverage of the UK and US elections next year and will host a series "showcasing the power of Britain around the world", the broadcaster said.
He promised to share his "unvarnished views" on a range of topics.
Johnson, who also writes a column for the Daily Mail, will start in the new year.
He is the latest Conservative politician to join the broadcaster, following former Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg, party deputy chairman Lee Anderson, and husband-and-wife MPs Esther McVey and Philip Davies.
In a video posted on X, formerly Twitter, the former PM said: "I am excited to say that I am shortly going to be joining you on GB News.
