“Worst Defeat For Any Party Since 1906” | Labour Landslide Marks New Government

Rishi Sunak has officially resigned as Conservative Party leader, with his party suffering one of their biggest losses in their 190-year history.

Labour’s Keir Starmer is set to form a new government after winning a majority of 326 seats.

In his victory speech, Sir Keir Starmer declared: "Our task is nothing less than renewing the ideals that hold this country together."

He added that the UK was waking up this morning to "the sunlight of hope," which was "shining once again on a country with the opportunity after 14 years to get its future back."

This marks the first Labour government since Gordon Brown was elected as prime minister in 2007.

Julia Hartley-Brewer speaks with ex-Chief of staff to Brexit secretary, Lord Jackson.

They laughed at Nigel Farage, they're not laughing now.

As an American, seems like your Conservative Party is like our RINOs (republican in name only). Lots of talk, little action. You need a MAGA or should I say MBGA wave. Takes time. 👍🏻Reform

The tories had a clear message laid out in front of them - why did brexit happen?? That one issue should have been addressed- and they would not be in this situation- but they simply didnt listen - so clear off and don’t come back

You say what you want to do, but nothing gets done, that's why you have lost power. More power to reform

[szmiabg]

I keep failing to understand why everyone calls the tories conservative...

[veryhappychappy]

Well deserved. Become conservative and slightly more people just might vote for you again....someday.

The fucking Overton window just fell out on the ground 😢

“Worst Defeat For Any Party Since 1906”

The Tories worked hard for it for 14 years, let them have their rewards....

[martino]

An imaginative narrative? Yep, that's why you lost

[MariTeabag-lfly]

At last the British people have been able to vote for who they want. We’ve had such a mishmash of Prime Ministers and those no-one voted for.

[HomemPrendado]

Woke and arrogance can destroy reputation!

[joycegibbs]

what can you offer a Conservative voter if there are virtually no Conservatives in the party ?

[anibrown]

Cons have presented us with a series of imaginative manifestos over 14yrs.

[springchicken]

Ideas that are never followed through.

[colinharrison]

Failed to serve the people what you are paid fore

[GeoffV-kh]

Tories still fail to see how badly they've failed.

[brotherelf]

Stop running candidates for the sake of it, there is no point winning a seat if they vote against the party at every opportunity both main parties would rather win but get nothing done.

[brianbamble]

If reform did more votes than LD why are they marked as 4th as that list doesn’t represent seats

[Cornz]

WOrst defeat wil be overshadowed by "worst the country has been SINCE 1906".

[deanwilliams]

the fox is now in the henhouse, there will be blood and feathers in parliament. With Nigel now in pm questions will certainly be entertaining!
