Johnson won 92,153 votes against the 46,656 received by his rival, Jeremy Hunt, the current foreign secretary.

 

Johnson said as PM he will bring "a new spirit of can-do" to the country.

 

"It's time to deliver Brexit, unite the country and defeat Jeremy Corbyn," he told the cheering audience after winning the leadership.

 

The Queen Elizabeth Center, just a few hundred meters from the Houses of Parliament was crowded with an audience who had been waiting to hear the name of Britain's incoming prime minister.

 

Johnson's brother and MP Jo Johnson sat alongside their sister Rachel and father Stanley Johnson to hear the announcement.

 

With an anti-Johnson move already geared up to prevent a no-deal Brexit, Johnson said in his speech there will be people who question the wisdom of the decision to elect him as leader and prime minister.

 

"No one person or party has a monopoly of wisdom," he said, adding that the Conservatives had always had the best instincts, and the best way of balancing instincts.
