What would a landslide victory for UK’s Labour Party mean for Britain and the rest of the world?

Britain's Labour Party is set for a landslide election victory, marking the end of a 14-year Conservative rule. Emeritus Professor Paul Whiteley from the University of Essex tells CNA what the UK can expect from a centre-left government, the future of Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party, and the broader implications of this political shift for the UK and the global stage.

The question is, can ANY party start to repair the deep and lasting self-inflicted damage caused by Brexit?

[Peter-ukpt]

The UK has been circling the drain for decades. Starmer is simply a symptom of how far the UK has fallen.

Good riddance to the Conservative Party.

UK will start recovering as a nation again. Bye Sunak 😂

Sunak realised that there’s no point in saving people who are unknowingly out of hate digging their own graves! Now in comes ‘poor Afghan, Syria and Iran immigrant’ sympathisers ! Rest of all can leave for Rwanda !

May our lord help protect us women and children from darkness now more than ever with this party in power. We are more in danger than ever.

People voted for Labor because the others wanted to introduce mandatory conscription. This is the main reason.

The UK does not have a center left political party by USA standards, Reform would equate to the GOP, Conservatives equate to the Democrats and Bernie Sanders would equate to Labour. Biden would be a Conservative in the UK and Trump would be an inmate. :)

If UK’s politicians keep obeying US’s instructions and continue to behave like a superpower, Labour Party can change nothing and UK’s economy shall still be stagnant and her GDP shall hv no hopes of a significant increase and continue to lag behind that of India.
