BEHIND the scenes snaps of Boris Johnson on election night show the hugs, cheers and beers of the Tories’ incredible win.
The PM is shown leaping into the air next to a jubilant Carrie Symonds at No10 and beaming as he enjoys a group hug with Michael Gove and Sajid Javid at Tory HQ.
In other pictures he throws his hands aloft next to a framed painting of Margaret Thatcher and calmly strokes Ms Symonds’ terrier Dilyn as he watches the action unfold on TV.
Boris is also snapped celebrating with all of his staff at Tory HQ as he throws up two thumbs up and bellows a cheer into the camera.
The PM bulldozed the red wall – traditionally Labour seats in the party’s northern heartlands – to secure an 80-seat majority.
He left Jeremy Corbyn crushed and forced to resign as Labour boss after taking the party to the worst result in 40 years.
Speaking on Friday morning, an ecstatic Mr Johnson said his “stonking” win has given him a “powerful mandate to get Brexit done”.
