Offering a befitting replay to the opposition, mainly the Labour, which tried to create a dark cloud around the matter of Brexit, and extending an assuring hand to the ruling which remains confident about leaving the economic union of European Union in the near future, the electorate of the United Kingdom has offered an astounding victory to the Conservative Party, increasing its number from around 317 to more than 364 – that is, at least 47 seats more than what they secured in the previous election.

Responding to the preliminary trends, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, visibly happy about the way the people of the country has responded his call for support, has promised, giving no space for the growth of any speculation or dark cloud, to take the UK out of the EU in the promised date itself.

The case of the Labour Party is pathetic, with its losses even in its traditional strongholds. The main task before them at this moment is to explain their supporters what that has gone wrong.

Literally, all those who opposed the Brexit have suffered the ire of the electorate. It is evident from the election result. Among those, the Labour, which had no clarity about the topic, is the one which has tasted the bitterest experience.

The United States President, Donald Trump, is the first leader who has come out to congratulate the winner.

He has appreciated Mr. Johnson for his victory and expressed his hope of forging a closer tie with the UK post the Brexit.

He, in his statement, has hinted about the depth of the deal the UK may reach with the US post the Brexit.

Apart from Mr. Trump, several other world leaders like German Chancellor Angela Merkel have congratulated Mr. Johnson.

What the verdict says is simple: The people of the state want Brexit and they want it now itself.

Today, it is a big day for the UK. The entire UK is at present in the polling stations across the country to decide who should rule their country in future. Along with the future of the present government, the British people today will also decide indirectly whether the UK should be allowed to pull back from the European Union. In that sense, the ongoing election is the second referendum on Brexit.

All the three main political parties, the Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats, have attached their campaign close to the matter of Brexit. When the Conservatives has promised a swift withdrawal of the UK from the EU, the Labour has pledged to seek the opinion of the people of the country on the matter of Brexit again in the form of a second referendum on the hope that the ongoing political turbulence may have changed the mind of the people who earlier cleared the Brexit proposal with a narrow margin.

At the same time, the Liberal Democrats have taken an entirely different stand. It has stongly opposed the idea of Brexit and assured the scrapping on Brexit.

As per a preliminary report, no political party is likely to get a clear majority in the parliament in the latest election. The report also predicts the loss of strength of the Conservatives in the election.

At present, the Conservatives has more than 43 per cent vote share in the country and the Labour has less than 34 per cent. And, the Liberal Democrats has over 12 per cent vote share.

If the Conservatives’ strength comes down below the majority line, then the Brexit will be a much harder thing to achieve.

Anyway, speaking to the media personals, British Prime Minister and Conservative leader Boris Johnson has expressed his confidence in winning the election with a huge majority.
