UK votes in an election that will pave the way for Brexit under PM Johnson or propel the country towards another referendum that could reverse decision to leave EU
Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson speaks during a final general election campaign event in London, Britain, on December 11, 2019.
The face of the "Leave" campaign in the 2016 referendum, 55-year-old Johnson fought the election under the slogan of "Get Brexit Done", promising to end the deadlock and spend more on health, education and the police. "We could have a Conservative majority government which will get Brexit done and unleash Britain’s potential," Johnson told campaigners. "This election is our chance to end the gridlock but the result is on a knife-edge.""You can vote for despair and vote for the dishonesty of this government, or you can vote Labour and get a government that can bring hope to the future," he said.
A majority would allow Johnson to lead the country out of the club it first joined in 1973, but Brexit would still be far from over. The election pitches two of the most unconventional British politicians of recent years against each other. Both have been repeatedly written off by opponents and both offer starkly different visions for the world's fifth largest economy.
