Labour Wins 2024 Election, Ends Tory Rule

Keir Starmer has been appointed as the new Prime Minister of the UK following a landslide victory for the Labour Party, ending 14 years of Conservative rule. Starmer's Labour won 412 seats in the House of Commons, marking the biggest majority since Tony Blair's era. While acknowledging the challenges ahead, including a struggling economy and broken public services, Starmer emphasized urgent action and national renewal. Former PM Rishi Sunak conceded defeat and apologized for the Conservative Party's historic loss. Starmer has committed to serving all citizens, regardless of their vote, and aims to demonstrate that politics can be a force for good. The new government also highlights significant appointments, such as Rachel Reeves as the first female Chancellor and Angela Rayner as Deputy Prime Minister.
