Boris Johnson in surprise late move to avert Tory wipeout
London | Boris Johnson made an unexpected campaign appearance on Tuesday night (Wednesday AEST) to urge Conservative voters to deny Labour a landslide victory at the UK general election, a last throw of the dice by Rishi Sunak’s Tories to try to prevent the huge losses that are expected at Thursday’s vote.
Making his first public appearance of the election campaign in an unscheduled speech in central London, the former prime minister warned: “A Labour government prepares to use a sledgehammer majority to destroy so much of what we have achieved.”
