YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The U.K.’s general election outcome hasn’t been this monumental since Margaret Thatcher won in 1979.

In electing Boris Johnson over the Labour Party’s leader, Jeremy Corbyn, the nation hasn’t just staved off disaster but reaffirmed their commitment to pushing for Brexit as well as a freer, more prosperous future in general.

For the U.S., Johnson’s victory means a stronger relationship between the two nations, and a greater opportunity a U.S.-U.K. free trade deal will go through.
