UK General Election 2023: Labour wins landslide victory
Keir Starmer will become the new Prime Minister
Labour has won a landslide victory in the UK general election, according to a BBC forecast. Keir Starmer will become the new prime minister, ending 13 years of Conservative rule.
The result is a major blow for Boris Johnson, who had called the election in an attempt to break the deadlock in Parliament and push through his Brexit deal.
Labour's victory is a remarkable turnaround for a party that was trailing in the polls just a few months ago. Starmer has been credited with uniting the party and rebuilding its support.
The election result is a major victory for the left and for the anti-Brexit movement. It is also a sign of the growing dissatisfaction with the Conservative government.
What happens next?
Starmer will now begin the process of forming a new government. He is expected to appoint a number of new ministers and to set out his plans for the country in a Queen's Speech.
The new government will face a number of challenges, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the economic crisis, and the ongoing Brexit negotiations.
