a risky operation in new zealand 6 more bodies are recovered from monday's volcanic eruption. now prime minister barak johnson has claimed an emphatic victory in the u.k. general election seen as a critical juncture in the brics it crisis and gulf in britain the versions left the opposition labor party in tatters with its west result in decades its lead to jeremy corbyn has vowed to step down boris johnson says he now has a powerful mandate to get it done and a warning there is some flash photography in paul brennan's report. not even a persistent pre-dawn drizzle could dampen the spirits of a clearly triumphant boris johnson emerging from conservative party headquarters in london this is a stunning victory for the prime minister and removes any obstacle to him taking britain out of the european union at the end of january it also marks a seismic shift in the u.k.

electorates political affiliation us in his victory speech in central london johnson made specific mention of those traditional labor supporters who voted conservative for the 1st time in decades your hands may have quivered over the ballot paper as before you put your cross in the conservative box and you may intend to return to labor next time round. and if that is the case i am humbled that you have put your trust in me and that you have put your trust in us and i we will never take your support for granted. and to conclude a final flourish of the slogans that delivered this extraordinary triumph let's unite this country let's trade opportunity to every corner of the u.k. with 2 public education supposing infrastructure and technology let's get bricks it done but 1st my friends let's get breakfast done

a fool. from the moment the exit poll predicted an unexpectedly large swing to the conservatives the tide flowed in bars johnson's favor by valley became the 1st labor see to for a 10 percent swing seen the conservatives win there for the 1st time since 195017 cars was. odd across the map of britain the trickle became a torrent of constituencies turning conservative blue traditional labor seats like workington and darlington peterborough and red car in contrast labor figures looked stunned and disbelieving at the catastrophe and gulping the labor leaders position had already looked perilous as the scale of the defeat began to sink in jeremy corbyn bowed to the inevitable he will not be leader for much longer i will not lead the party in any future general election campaign i will discuss with our party to ensure there is a process now of reflection on this result and on the policies that the party will

take going forward it's been a bad night for the liberal democrats to their leader joe swenson unseated by the scottish national party for millions of people in our country. these results will bring dread and dismay. and people are looking for hope. boris johnson for this as a breakfast election and the simplicity of the slogan get it done clearly resonated with voters but some commentators worry that politics is the poorer because of its . stance and use all the tricks in the book and i guess it's worked i worry that every future political party will say that's the way to do it if you want to win and that actually over time will undermine our democracy and our ability to actually discuss big issues right now though the size of his majority means the prime minister has clear the path in front of him he can drive his own agenda

without fear of opposition. al-jazeera london. well let's take a look at the current numbers with just one seat still to be confirmed by as johnson's conservative party has an outright majority in parliament of a 364 seats the opposition labor party won just 203 seats the scottish national party made major gains with 48 seats the liberal democrats only won 11 and their leader gerry spence and lost to has seat to the s.n.p. the brakes in party didn't win any seats and 23 seats have gone to other smaller parties well let's cross live now to lawrence lee who is a london where britons are waking up 20 entirely new political landscape sarah lawrence a complete reconfiguration then of british politics. yeah i mean if you look at the map in terms of colors scotland is now virtually entirely yellow but the scottish nationalists. is almost entirely blue with the exception of london most of which

will work of absolute fury is because it. supported labor in a couple of the big metropolitan cities so it really is a historic moment in modern british history because the people have decided that it is the point to kill off entirely any hope that the u.k. might stay in the european union and the u.k. will now leave the european union. at the end of january and goal of a new direction yes to be decided let's let the other sort of project elements who was advisor to both their promises 10 tony blair and gordon brown and now mary diversity in and i'm sorry obviously you know the party very well absolutely catastrophic for jeremy corbyn his his his belief that the people could see past brick sets and this transformative agenda for right wealth redistribution and things like that and at the very people he was trying to make that appeal to just turn the backs and complicated what was that you think yeah i mean i think it's a humiliating defeat for the labor party we should not forget but it's not just the

scale of the result last night in which labor was very heavily defeated as you say across large swathes of the country it's also the context in which the defeat comes we've had 10 years nearly of conservative government the economy has not been performing very successfully boris johnson himself interesting the his ratings were fairly poor throughout the election campaign he's not particularly popular leader and yet labor in germany where there's a little bit well i think what it says is that the labor party has been issued here with a verdict by the electorate which is devastating which says labor has the wrong leader it has the wrong policies it has the wrong strategy and if it doesn't get its act together it's going to spend many many more years out of power do you think it was that combination before we get on so what johnson does with bricks it of of colvin being so disingenuous about what he wants to do but would it have another referendum not say were they really what he was which he supported but as well as that personally there was his sense that he was attacked all the time for the for the support of the ira and too close to venezuela or and in all that it was just

didn't like the very much as a person today no i think that's right and i think it was partly to do with corbin's character as a leader but i think what it added up to for people was a sense it was a risk it was a big risk it was a risk because it meant that you would go in an uncertain direction what happens brynn's relationship with the e.u. with the be a 2nd. random what was going to happen it wasn't very clear during the call but himself wasn't clear it was a risk to you because you term credentials on security a week it was a risk because light was promising to spend a lot more a lot economically to people's living standards risk mortgages so what might be added up to for the electorate was a risk and people did not want and the job was to much much simpler i mean as much of a hurry as you get it out of the way for goodness sake and so. obviously we know the timetable is for delivery of bricks do you think he can actually get any sort of deal done in the weather he's promised to buy then a 2020 or is that is that an illusion he could get

a very broad brush trade deal in place i think what is more likely though is that we all set for a period of transition in which which make old for much longer what i think matters to voters is that breaks it will happen as they regard it on the 31st of january that's right isn't it isn't that the point that you know once the u.k. has left we can stop talking about all the intricate sort of trade that no one ever understands doesn't really matter it's of the voters as much as the fact that it's actually happened as they say yeah i mean there will be some very big long term questions about where we go economically want trade relationships or with the e.u. what the shape of the new trade deal looks like how we did negotiate a deal with the united states but those are very much feature or insight to questions i think the sense among the electorate be one of relief you know we have got breaks it down as boris johnson would say the house now finally been resolved and they will probably vote the mood of the electorate will be to move on to other issues i think what we did see in this election was a lot of concern about a national health service about the public services people want to see politicians moving back to thinking about those issues rather than as they would see obsessing about thank you very much it is true just of that last point the party was making

after nearly 10 years of being at all face an austerity being order they out of the conservatives here they are now promising soon invest in public services and i think all those people who used to vote labor who now have a concept of this time in the middle and the north will want to see that investment going to their communities very much indeed. indeed lawrence lee there for us investments to be tracking to chatting to him throughout the day thank you lawrence well as we've been saying scottish national party supporters are celebrating major gains the s.n.p. won 48 of scotland's 59 seats and westminster leader nicolas sturgeon says the result paves the way for another independence referendum well let's speak now to nadine barber who joins us live from edinburgh the dean these numbers clearly leave the s.n.p. extremely strong and does give them the mandate to push now in the rest. absolutely nicholas station said even before the election but before christmas she plans to

ask the u.k. government for a guarantee that they would be allowed to hold in direct to the another independence referendum in 2021 she hasn't actually be repeated that promise in the last few hours but it's clear that they've done better than even they expected with $48.00 seats out of scotland's $59.00 seats in westminster they are almost back to the landslide levels that they receive that they achieved in 2015 labor hold on to just one seat they had 7 seats here in scotland they were once of course the dominant party here how the landscape has changed and now this is what nicholas sturgeon is saying she said i don't pretend every single person who voted s.n.p. yesterday will necessarily support independence but there has been a strong endorsement in this election of scotland having a choice over our future of not having to put up with

a conservative government we didn't vote for and not having to accept life as a nation outside the e.u. that is the crucial point in the 2016 breaks that referendum scotland voted by 60 percent for remain it is very much to remain nation and not only thought you were just hearing from my guests talking to lawrence there that boris johnson has achieved this great result without being popular will it here in scotland he's even more unpopular when he made one of these 1st visits here as prime minister to scotland in august i was here he was booed as he met nicholas sturgeon at bute house the leader of the scottish conservatives ruth davidson resigned because she couldn't see eye to eye with boris johnson on brakes it here in scotland now a major clashes lined up between the s.n.p. with a. all those members of parliament in westminster and boris johnson's government

how much leverage they will have to get that independence referendum which has to be legislated for its work in westminster is a moot point but they will certainly be trying. one day and that live for us and read thank you very much today while speaking and brussels the council president has congratulated doris johnson on his election when and said it's now time to move forward with the withdrawal agreement. we are ready. we have decided what are our priorities the level playing fields are very important party 1st we turn to these are important to keep this close to operation the united kingdom to develop the possibility for 3 to 4 to me development but also in other fields like security like the difference we have commandos with the u.k. and i hope we will have a loyal negotiations a good negotiation. well that's big mountain and talk about tigers in brussels for

us natasha michelle they're sounding very much like he too wants to get brakes at finally done talk us through the process from here. yes we're e.u. leaders are arriving and we've been watching them and pretty much the consensus is among them that they are relieved with this result because it offers a sense of clarity as to the direction in which the u.k. wants to go national michel's sage also that he hopes the boris johnson will now be able to get his deal passed by the u.k. parliament as quickly as possible because what e.u. leaders want to get on with one still u.k. withdrawals from the european union share jeweled on the 31st of january they want to get on with the trade negotiations now we are expected to speak a little bit later about that they will be having a meeting to discuss not only the results of the u.k. election but the steps next and hopefully we will also have a communique

a bit later after a press conference which will really detail the e.u.'s position natasha about that live for us in brussels thank you so much natasha. well still ahead on al-jazeera chile as president survives a bid to force him from office after weeks of violent protests. and libyan war ugly for have orders his forces to advance into central tripoli saying the final battle has arrived. fishing boats from north korea washing up on the shores of japan. some of carrying
