UK Election Results: David Cameron Pledges A ‘greater Britain’

David Cameron has promised to lead a government for “one nation” and make “Great Britain greater” as he returned to Downing Street as prime minister.

Speaking outside No 10 after visiting Buckingham Palace, he said the UK was “on the brink of something special”.

The Conservatives have 330 seats – four more than needed for a Commons majority – their first such victory since 1992.

Mr Cameron’s rivals Ed Miliband, Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage have all resigned after election disappointment.

The Conservative leader is now beginning the process of putting together the new government, with senior Cabinet appointments expected to be announced later on Friday.

Mr Cameron said he would reach out to all parts of the UK and strive to “Bring the country together” in the wake of the SNP’s election landslide in Scotland –
where it won 56 of the 59 seats.(BBC)
