Keir Starmer leads Labour to win UK
Labour's victory marks historic moment in British politics
Britain woke up today to the scene of a political earthquake. The Labour Party's resounding victory in the UK general election marks a historic moment in modern British political history and a decisive end to the Conservative Party's 10-year rule.
Labour leader Keir Starmer hailed the result as a "new dawn" for Britain, and pledged to build a " fairer, more prosperous and more just" society.
The election was called by Prime Minister Boris Johnson in an attempt to break the parliamentary deadlock over Brexit. But the gamble backfired spectacularly, with the Conservatives losing their majority in the House of Commons and Johnson's own position now in jeopardy.
Labour's victory is a remarkable turnaround for a party that was written off just a few months ago. Under Starmer's leadership, Labour has been able to unite its disparate factions and reconnect with voters who had abandoned the party in recent years.
The election result is a clear rejection of Johnson's Brexit strategy and his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
