Here are five things we learnt from it.

The prime minister said he wants an end to "division, rancour and uncertainty", which basically means he wants to stop conflict and arguments between people.
The issue of Brexit has divided a lot of the country, and the PM said he'd like to try and fix that.
2) He said he wants to be a PM for everyone

He said he will take Britain out of the European Union by the end of January.
He said his deal is "in the microwave" with its "plastic covering pierced", which means it's ready to go.
4) His first job
The PM said that when parliament opens up again, one of his first jobs will be to help the NHS.
He said his government will provide an extra 拢34 billion a year and build new hospitals and provide more nurses and GPs.
When Parliament resumes, he says one of the first actions will be "to pass a bill enshrining in law a record funding settlement for the NHS.
