UK Gets a New PM: Rishi Sunak's Shocking Defeat | Keir Starmer Wins UK Election

Labour Party leader Keir Starmer won a landslide victory, ending 14 years of Conservative rule.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak conceded defeat as exit polls projected Labour to win 410 seats in the 650-seat House of Commons, with Conservatives securing only 131.

Starmer now faces the challenge of addressing economic issues and social divisions as the new Prime Minister.

The election also promises a more diverse Parliament, reflecting changing UK demographics.
