London Mayor Boris Johnson, who was born in New York, says he intends to renounce his American citizenship to prove his “commitment to Britain,” the BBC reports.
He said that his citizenship was “an accident of birth that has left me with this thing. I’ve got to find a way of sorting it out.”
The Telegraph says Johnson, who is running for a seat in Parliament, would be “removing a potential obstacle to becoming Prime Minister.”
