After his sweeping election win, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Britain would leave the European Union on January 31
“We will get Brexit done on time by the 31st of January, no ifs, no buts, no maybes,” Johnson told cheering supporters on Friday.
Official results from Thursday’s general election, a snap poll called by Johnson to break months of political deadlock over Brexit, showed his Conservatives had won 364 of the 650 seats up for grabs in the House of Commons as of Friday morning, with results in one seat still to be declared.
