In a historic victory, Keir Starmer and the Labour Party have decisively won the UK general elections, ending 14 years of Conservative rule. Rishi Sunak, leader of the Conservative Party, conceded defeat and apologized for the party's significant losses, including several high-profile seats. Starmer celebrated the win with a speech at the Tate Modern in London, promising 'change begins now' and offering hope for the future. Despite the landslide victory, some commentators have dubbed it a 'loveless landslide,' noting that Labour's vote share is likely to be lower than in any of Tony Blair's victories. The election results mark a significant shift in UK politics, with Labour now set to form a government with a substantial majority.
