Boris Johnson celebrates his triumph: "We will finish Brexit and unite the country" | UK Elections

The big winner of the night, Boris Johnson, spoke his first words as the winner of the election after confirming his seat in Parliament for the Uxbridge constituency, east London. The leader of the Conservatives won in his first elections with a campaign clearly focused on Brexit, and the plan went perfectly, obtaining the desired absolute majority. Johnson assured that “this government with a conservative majority has received a powerful mandate to achieve Brexit, and not only for that, but to unite this country and take it forward. His first words were meager, quick, before heading towards Downing Street to experience the final stretch of the count. Before, he had echoed the message posted on social networks by the Conservative Party celebrating the results offered by the exit polls. Yes, he took the opportunity to reiterate his promises: “Yes, we will hire 50,000 more nurses and 6,000 more doctors, and We will build 40 new hospitals throughout the country. ”Born in New York in 1964 – the son of British parents, he renounced his US citizenship in 2015 – Boris Johnson won his first general election in the United Kingdom. Former mayor of London, he arrived at 10 Downing Street succeeding the resigned Theresa May, unable to get Parliament to support the Brexit that he agreed with the European Union. May, in turn, had inherited that mess from David Cameron, the resigned premier who embarked on an adventure that he failed to manage with any success. Boris Johnson managed to renegotiate a new Brexit with the European Union, but again found himself unable to get enough votes in the British Parliament.Thus, he played a new election knowing that only an absolute majority would be worth, in his words, “unblocking” Parliament. His campaign was based exclusively on the idea of getting Brexit through -‘Get Brexit done’-, thus complying with what was voted in the 2016 referendum. Facing a Corbyn who never positioned himself either for or against, and who embarked on a series of disturbing economic proposals – primarily, partially nationalize large British companies – Johnson has convinced the electorate that the countdown makes sense again. After numerous extensions, Boris Johnson is now in a position to achieve the exit of the United Kingdom, at the latest, on January 31, 2020, a new deadline set by the European Union. If not before, as Johnson came to venture.
