Topic: UK Election: Johnson wins Big

Episode: 403

Topic Description:

Boris Johnson emerged on to the steps of 10 Downing Street as Prime Minister of a majority Conservative Party government after winning a landslide victory in the UK General Election. The 55-year-old was driven to Buckingham Palace for his audience with Queen Elizabeth II for the formal government formation protocol as the final results tally handed him a solid 80-seat majority - the party's largest since 1987 under Margaret Thatcher. The result hands Johnson a "powerful mandate" to take Britain out of the European Union (EU) by the January 31 deadline. In his first speech after a landslide victory, Johnson called for closure on Brexit and vowed to work "round the clock" to repay the trust of the voters in what he has branded will be a "one-nation people's government".
