Starmer’s Five Missions for the Country:

1. Achieve the highest sustained growth in the G7 nations.

2. Transition to clean energy by removing fossil fuels from electricity generation by 2030.

3. Reform the justice system, Improve the NHS and raise education standards.

What They’re Saying

A euphoric Starmer who addressed a cheering crowd in Central London after his victory had said: “We did it, change begins now. It feels good, I have to be honest.”

On the other hand, the outgoing Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, had in reaction to hus defeat, said he was taking responsibility for the the Conservative Party’s loss of which he was a member and their candidate.

Sunak had said: “Britain has delivered a sobering verdict. On this difficult night, I’d like to express my gratitude to the people of Richmond and Northallerton constituency for your continued support.

“The Labour Party has won this general election and I’ve called Sir Keir Starmer to congratulate him on his victory.

“Today, power will change hands in a peaceful and orderly manner, with goodwill on all sides. That is something that should give us all confidence in our country’s stability and future.

“The British people have delivered a sobering verdict tonight, there is much to learn… and I take responsibility for the loss.”

Why It Matters

Keir Starmer’s win marks a significant shift in leadership, because after 14 years of Conservative rule, the Labour party is returning to power once more.

As the new Prime Minister, he will be responsible for shaping the new policies, addressing pressing issues, and steering the country in the right direction.

In conclusion, Keir Starmer faces low overall trust in politicians from Brits, and a record number of British children living in poverty. It will be interesting to see how he tackles these issues in the coming days.
