Despite expectations of a far closer outcome, the UK general election on December 12, 2019 resulted in a clear victory for the Conservative Party under Boris Johnson. It continues its history as the most successful electoral force in mod European history. Despite the doomsayers, Johnson now has a clear majority and has already flexed his muscle by passing the legislation to take the UK out of the EU on January 31. Barring complete disaster for him and his govment, this will now happen.
