<p>Speaking outside 10 Downing Street, the Tory leader said he would meet the October 31 deadline “no ifs or buts”.</p>
<p>Watched by girlfriend Carrie Symonds, Mr Johnson promised he would “change this country for the better”.</p>
<p>Arriving in Downing Street after being invited by the Queen to form a government during an audience at Buckingham Palace, Mr Johnson vowed to prove the Brexit doubters wrong.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The Queen received The Right Honourable Boris Johnson MP in an Audience this afternoon and requested him to form a new Administration. <a href="https://t.co/WMFksFMo4S">https://t.co/WMFksFMo4S</a> <a href="https://t.co/mngEVnxm8X">pic.twitter.com/mngEVnxm8X</a></p>

<p>He said: <em>“I am standing before you today, to tell you the British people, that those critics are wrong – the doubters, the doomsters, the gloomsters are going to get it wrong again.”</em></p>
<p>He predicted that “the people who bet against Britain are going to lose their shirts because we are going to restore trust in our democracy”.</p>
<p>He added: <em>“And we are going to fulfil the repeated promises of Parliament to the people and come out of the EU on October 31, no ifs or buts.</em></p>
<p><em>“And we will do a new deal, a better deal that will maximise the opportunities of Brexit while allowing us to develop a new and exciting partnership with the rest of Europe based on free trade and mutual support.</em></p>
<p><em>“I have every confidence that in 99 days’ time we will have cracked it.</em></p>
<p><em>“But you know what we aren’t going to wait 99 days, because the British people have had enough of waiting.</em></p>
<p><em>“The time has come to act, to take decisions, to give strong leadership and to change this country for the better.”</em></p>
<p>He promised action to fix the social care crisis, make the streets safe and improve the NHS.</p>
<p>He said: “I will take personal responsibility for the change I want to see.</p>
<p>“Never mind the backstop, the buck stops here.”</p>
<p>But on the issue of the Irish border – the main stumbling block in reaching a Brexit deal – Mr Johnson said he was “convinced” a solution could be found without checks at the Irish border and without the “anti-democratic backstop”.</p>
<p>He added: <em>“It is of course vital at the same time that we prepare for the remote possibility that Brussels refuses any further to negotiate and we are forced to come out with no-deal.</em></p>
<p><em>“Not because we want that outcome, of course not, but because it is only common sense to prepare.”</em></p>
<p>Mrs May had used her farewell address in Downing Street to urge Mr Johnson to secure a Brexit deal.</p>
<p>She said the “immediate priority” was “to complete our exit from the European Union in a way that works for the whole United Kingdom”.</p>
