The Conservatives have now passed the finishing post, securing a majority in the House of Commons in the Tories largest victory since Margaret Thatcher's reign in the 1980s. The remaining results will determine how large a majority the Prime Minister will govern, as he embarks on the policy pledges made during the election campaign. The election result has marked a significant shift across the country as the Tories have managed to tear down Labour's "red wall" as voters back Boris to get Brexit done. The Labour heartlands were stripped of their Labour MP's as swathes of Britons turned to Boris as Jeremy Corbyn receives a humiliating defeat, the party's worst result in decades.

State of the parties after 648 results of 650 in the 2019 general election:
Brexit Party = 0
Conservative Party = 363
DUP = 8
Green Party = 1
Labour Party = 203
Liberal Democrats = 11
Plaid Cymru = 4
Sinn Féin = 7
SNP = 48
Other = 3

Mr Johnson said Brexit will get done by January 31 "no ifs, no buts".

He said: "And I will make it my mission to work night and day, flat out to prove that you were right in voting for me this time, and to earn your support in the future.

"And I say to you that in this election your voice has been heard, and about time too.

"Because we politicians have squandered the last three years, three and a half years in squabbles - we've even been arguing about arguing, and arguing about the tone of our arguments.

"I will put an end to all that nonsense and we will get Brexit done on time by the January 31 - no ifs, no buts, no maybes.

"Leaving the European Union as one United Kingdom, taking back control of our laws, borders, money, our trade, immigration system, delivering on the democratic mandate of the people."
