The Conservatives have won at least 326 seats in Thursday's election – an absolute majority in the UK Parliament. Here are some key takeaways:Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his Conservative party will now take a commanding majority into the next five-year Parliament. With a manifesto that was light on detail, little is known about what Johnson is planning to do, beyond taking Britain out of the European Union.
During a disastrous evening, leader Jeremy Corbyn has said he would stand aside before the next election. One MP has already thrown her hat into the ring to succeed the Labour leader. Jess Phillips, a centrist MP who has been a frequent critic of Corbyn's leftist movement, suggested she will stand in a future leadership contest.It was an extremely successful election for the Scottish National Party who are on course to win most of the 59 seats in Scotland.
Labour and the Liberal Democrats split the vote in the Cities of London and Westminster, leading to the defeat of Labour defector Chuka Umunna, who had criticized Jeremy Corbyn's leadership and left to join the Lib Dems.
Boss
The UK is finally waking up. Bravo!
DomVanLoij what a baller

Fuck this guy.
Clown 🤡

'years and years' it's real.
I will do mobile or web ui ux and prototype or wireframe
I wonder what Putin is going to do to Buckingham Palace..... probably give it to trump for a bro-mance present.. Not that there’s anything wrong with that... ya da ya da .....
I will create ui ux designs for your games
I'll give it two days tops before I'm sick to death of his bloody voice.
donald trump will take credit for this
His 'resounding election victory' is getting 43% of the vote but 100% of the control. Report the facts CNN not your idiotic misunderstanding of an archaic electoral system.
I give up.
the problem is still a referendum head count is not a general election a different process and at something like 43 to 52 percent vote share you cant show brexit even exists outside of the media there isnt even a brexit party anymore in 'number' terms if that's the case
😀😀
to hell with this witless goblin
British version of Trump
And the film V FOR VENDETTA is coming true quickly...
Economic Suicide is Badass
There won’t be any UK. Scotland and wales will become independent and Northern Ireland will reunite with Ireland.
The UK is about to Disintegrate. Scotland will leave. NI will leave. . . Then Wales . . . The Kingdom is NOT united 👋🏼
I wish them the best.
I’m not British nor do I live in the UK. I don’t pretend to understand the motivation of Britons to push for Brexit. I do have a degree in Macro Economics. I fear the UK is going to go thru some serious troubled financial times for quite some time. Especially if Scotland leaves.
wow a huge mandate-👍🏻👍🏻
Ok 👌🏼 but now he needs to practice what he preaches! 👀 cmon Boris the stage is all yours! 👏🏼👏🏼 🙏🏻
Let me guess... Far right? Have fun.
Este senhor está conseguindo o que a Thereza Mayra tanto tentou e não conseguiu, mas ela abriu o caminho!
How many years does it take to 'get brexit done'? Over 3 years so far, another 5 looks likely.
Congrats UK Hope you like crap
They all come from the same school....

I’ll give it 2-3 years after Brexit and then the UK will be begging to join EU again...
'Let's get Brexit done, but first, my friends, let's get breakfast done' ElectionResults2019 I think that Kenya has a lot to learn about how to conduct an election. The polls closed at 10pm UK time and in less than 12 hours BorisJohnson gave his victory speech. Because of
But I thought the NHS was ruined now
When will people see he's full of shit.
Can't wait to see England burn to the ground, self inflicted!
We Love Boris ❤
Fantastic
Brilliant!! 'Corbyn neutral'!! That is very funny.
Can't wait to watch England burn to the ground!!!!!
Those Brits have all latched into a strange term for saying “leaving the EU” in my opinion.
Says the Russian installed stooge.
man this whole thing is a shit show, kind of happy corbyn didn't win, but not happy the conservatives won.
We know that the UK will never accept any Brexit that would: 1. No maximum Brexit 2. No physical border in Ireland 3. No surrender of UK hegemony Looks like the UK will kick the Brexit ball down the road for the next couple of years
