The Labour party has won over 400 seats (out of 650) in the 2024 UK General Elections, and Keir Starmer is expected to replace Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister. The Conservatives, in power for the last fourteen years, have suffered a rout, losing over two-thirds of their seats. The SNP has collapsed in Scotland, mostly to Labour, and the Liberal Democrats have gained over sixty seats.

    Starmers first few speeches in power actually make me optimistic, and I didn’t vote for him. If he can truly deliver on being “country before party”, and making “personal gain the politics of the past”. It’s only a words right now, but the cabinet appointments (especially the 3 from outside the party) look good.

    It’s all down to results.
