Boris Johnson Sweeps to UK Election Victory

Conservatives Return with a 78-seat Majority

The Conservative Party led by Boris Johnson has swept to a resounding victory in the UK General Election, gaining 47 seats and a working majority in the House of Commons of 78, the largest since 1935. There is still one seat still to be declared.

In the snap election, widely viewed as a determining vote for the resolving of the Brexit crisis, the opposition Labour Party was swept aside in its traditional heartlands of the Midlands and the north-east, losing 59 seats.

In his victory speech, Mr Johnson said he would ‘repay the trust of voters, and work ‘flat out’ to lead a ‘people’s government’.

A short time ago, Prime Minister Johnson travelled to Buckingham Palace to request Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s permission to form a new government.

Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn has said he will not remain, and the party will be seeking a new leader. The party has been widely condemned for its anti-Semitic views.

Although a Conservative win was deemed likely by pollsters, the historic scale of this victory was unanticipated.

President Trump tweeted his congratulations to Mr Johnson;

Congratulations to Boris Johnson on his great WIN! Britain and the United States will now be free to strike a massive new Trade Deal after BREXIT. This deal has the potential to be far bigger and more lucrative than any deal that could be made with the E.U. Celebrate Boris!
