UK PM frustrated Brexit is not happening on October 31
(VOVWORLD) - UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday said he was frustrated that Brexit is not happening, as he has repeatedly promised, on October 31, adding that if the electorate voted for him then the divorce would be done by January.

The House of Commons voted last Tuesday to support the Brexit agreement Johnson reached with the EU, but the PM said he believes Parliament will not vote Brexit through because there are too many people who are opposed to the deal.
He is optimistic, however, that if people vote for him in the upcoming election, Brexit will be a reality by next January.
