K. Out of the European UnionCharlie Angela reports from london. Boris johnson is welcomed back to downing street. To the conservatives radically reconfigured britains political map with their biggest majority since the 1987 and im proud to say that members of our new one nation government a peoples government will set out from constituencies that have never returned a conservative m. P. For a 100 years and yes they will have an overwhelming mandate from this election to get it done and we will honor that mandate by general the 31st i want to striking a more grateful note johnson thank labor voters for swapping sides of his promise now to embrace all delivered i say thank you for the trust you have placed in us and in me.

K. So to the Prime Minister let me be very clear this is not simply a demand that i or the s. N. P. Are making it is the rate of the people of scotland and you as the leader of a defeated party in scotland have no rate to stand in the we. This was stooges reaction as the s. N. P. Took the seat of joe swinson the liberal democrat leader with 48 of scotlands 59 seats in the Westminster Parliament they say the message to london could have been clearer. But in the scottish capital already home to the devolved parliament not everyone agrees that another independence vote is now more likely. Under left. So. I think youre i think quite honestly stop pollution scotland. Referendum h
