LONDON – Several hundred protesters marched through central London on Friday to protest against Britain’s election result.
The protesters, brandishing signs that read “Defy Tory (Conservative) Rule” and “Refugees Welcome,” walked at speed from outside Johnson’s Downing Street residence to Trafalgar Square and on to the theater district, blocking traffic and drawing police presence.
Johnson’s Conservatives won Thursday’s election by a large margin.
On Friday, he called for “closure” over the Brexit divisions that have riven the United Kingdom for the past three and a half years.(Reuters)
