Johnson Cruises To Majority Government

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson now has greater control of parliament after voters handed him a decisive majority government.

The vote yesterday also signified the end of the road for opposition Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn, who says he will step down.

His party lost seats in areas the party has held for generations.

Johnson will be pushing to get Brexit done, taking the country out of the European Union, with the deadline being January 31st.

This majority win is the largest Conservative victory since the days of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
