JUST IN: Boris Johnson will be the UK's next Prime Minister
"Dude, we're going to energize the country," Johnson says as he closes out his speechJohnson notes his campaign slogan --"Deliver, Unite, Defeat" -- had an unfortunate acronym, so he adds an 'E' at the end for"energize."
"I say to all the doubters -- 'Dude, we're going to energize the country," Johnson says, to an audible mix of cheers and ironic groans. He promises a"new spirit of can-do," and touts a number of domestic achievements he hopes to achieve. "I will work flat-out from now on with my team that I will build," he says."The campaign is over and the work begins."
And that's it -- Johnson leaves the stage after a brief speech to rapturous applause inside the hall.
