By Reporter 3

 

Keir Starmer of the Labour Party has emerged as the new Prime Minister of The United Kingdom (UK), following his landslide victory in the general UK election. Addressing a large crowd in Central London after his victory, Starmer said: “We did it, change begins now. It feels good, I have to be honest.”

Labour Party was declared the winner of the poll after reaching the required 326 parliamentary seats in the UK election.

The outgoing Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, while reacting to the result of the election said, he takes responsibility for the loss of the Conservative Party. Sunak said: “Britain has delivered a sobering verdict. On this difficult night, I’d like to express my gratitude to the people of Richmond and Northallerton constituency for your continued support.

“The Labour Party has won this general election and I’ve called Sir Keir Starmer to congratulate him on his victory.

“Today, power will change hands in a peaceful and orderly manner, with goodwill on all sides. That is something that should give us all confidence in our country’s stability and future.”

“The British people have delivered a sobering verdict tonight, there is much to learn… and I take responsibility for the loss,” he remarked.
