I can’t say that Christmas will be normal this year,” said Johnson. “In a period of adversity, time spent with loved ones is even more precious for people of all faiths.

She continued saying: “But, I must confess, I did buy two headbands – one black and fluffy, from Shrimps, and one pink and from Prada – that I’ve been drooling over for months.” “I’m allotting these spending choices as self-care; I needed something to remind myself that sometimes, in the midst of all this uncertainty, it’s OK to use fashion to remind myself who I am today,” Lara added.

The UK PM has called out for his important ministers to talk on Iran threatens as they have warned that they will kill the British forces.
After his holiday from the Caribbean, he is into a lot of pressure as he had shown his support for Trump.
When he had earlier had talks with the US President he had urged both US and Iran to calm down on the issue. The news sent shock waves when Qassem Soleimini the Iran General was killed.
To add more fuel to it Mr. Johnson had commented that British government will not feel for the demise of Qassem Soleimani and also added saying: “the general, killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad on Friday, had played a role in the deaths of thousands of innocent people and was a ‘threat to all our interests.”
But Iran instead has been raging to avenge the US for Quassem’s death. As per reports one of the commanders stated that: “Our forces will retaliate and target US troops in the Middle East without any concern about killing its allies, including UK troops, as this has turned into a fully-fledged war with much collateral damage expected.”
However, Trump had been coming up with his furious tweets after Iran spoke that U.S and UK will be kicked out of the nation.
Trump’s also stated that war will be against Iran and its territory. Meanwhile, Boris was silent to his calls while he was returning from his vacation to handle the issue.
Once reaching the UK he had talks with Mr. Trump, France President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Boris stated that: “General Qassem Soleimani posed a threat to all our interests and was responsible for a pattern of disruptive, destabilizing behavior.
“Given the leading role he has played in actions that have led to the deaths of thousands of innocent civilians and western personnel, we will not lament his death. It is clear however that all calls for retaliation or reprisals will simply lead to more violence in the region and they are in no one’s interest.”
“He urged all sides to encourage de-escalation and said the UK had taken steps to boost the security of UK personnel and interests in the region.”
“We have condemned the recent attacks on coalition forces in Iraq and are gravely concerned by the negative role Iran has played in the region, including through the IRGC and the Al-Quds force under the command of General Soleimani.”

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson loses his very first major vote on Brexit. It is evident that Brexit rebels from his own Conservative Party turned against him. While for so long he restrained from the demand of the opposition to conduct elections, now after losing the major vote, he demands early elections.
Earlier, It is reported that Boris Johnson had secretly decided to suspend parliament nearly two weeks before asking the Queen, according to memos from Downing Street read out in court.
Here are the quick statements of Prime Minister Boris Jonhson and the leader of opposition Jeremy Corbyn after the trust vote,
Boris Johnson:
Let there be no doubt about the consequences of this vote tonight.
It means that parliament is on the brink of wrecking any deal we might be able to strike in Brussels.
Because tomorrow’s bill would hand control of the negotiations to the EU.
And that would mean more dither, more delay, more confusion.
And it would mean that the EU themselves would be able to decide how long to keep this country in the EU.
And since I refuse to go along with that plan we are going to have to make a choice. I don’t want an election. The public doesn’t want an election. But if the House votes for this bill tomorrow, the public will have to choose who goes to Brussels on October 17 to sort this out and take this country forward.
Everyone will know if the Rt Hon Gentleman is the prime minister, he will go to Brussels, he will beg for an extension, you will accept whatever Brussels demands and we’ll have years more arguments over Brexit.
And by contrast, everyone will know that if I am prime minister, I will go to Brussels, I will go for a deal and get a deal but if they won’t do a deal we will leave anyway on 31 October.
The people of this country will have to choose.
The leader of the Opposition has been begging for an election for two years.
I don’t want an election but if MPs vote tomorrow to stop the negotiations and to compel another pointless delay of Brexit, potentially for years, then that will be the only way to resolve this.
I can confirm that tonight we will are tabling a motion under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act.
Jeremy Corbyn:
I welcome tonight’s vote. We live in a parliamentary democracy, we do not have a presidency but a prime minister.
Prime ministers govern with the consent of the House of Commons, representing the people in whom the sovereignty rests.
There is no consent in this house to leave the European Union without a deal. There is no majority for no deal in the country.
As I have said before: if the prime minister has confidence in his Brexit policy – when he has one he can put forward – he should put it before the people in a public vote.
And so, he wants to table a motion for a general election, fine get the bill through first in order to take no-deal off the table.
