Boris Johnson was greeted with applause and cheers when he joined one of the final events of the Conservative Party’s General Election campaign.
As he stepped onto the stage at the National Army Museum on Tuesday, less than 48 hours before polls open, Mr Johnson was greeted by applause and chants of “Boris, Boris, Boris”.He thanked attendees at the late evening event for “coming so late, way past Keir Starmer’s bedtime” in a dig at the Labour leader’s comment that he largely avoids working after 6pm on Fridays to spend time with his family.“We’re all here because we love our country.
