British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was interrupted during a speech, Thursday, September 5, as a police trainee became ill while standing behind the Conservative leader at a police training center in Wakefield.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson continued to push Thursday for an early general election, despite several defeats in parliament and the sudden resignation of his brother from his post as a junior minister and from parliament.
During a speech in Yorkshire, Johnson maintained a snap election must be held so voters can decide whether to leave the European Union on Oct. 31 with or without an agreement.
When asked if he would ask the European Union to extend the Brexit deadline, Johnson said, "I'd rather be in a ditch," adding that a delay "achieves absolutely nothing."
