Congressman Brendan Boyle’s Statement on the British Elections

May 7, 2015

"The US-UK relationship is an important one. Today Britain is voting in what appears to be the closest election in decades. Unlike all past elections, a multi-party government is likely to emerge. Whatever the British public decides, I hope a strong and stable government will emerge that continues to value this relationship. Together, our two countries must continue to work closely on important issues, such as combatting the rise in terrorism, fighting poverty in the developing nations, and promoting peace and justice in Northern Ireland. As a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, I look forward to working with Britain's elected leaders to continue our progress on these fronts."
