we ran as a changed labour party, and we will govern as a changed labour party. [applause] i do not promise you it will be easy. changing a country is not like flipping a switch, it is hard to come a patient and determined work, and we will have to get moving immediately. even when the going gets tough, and it will, remember, tonight and always what this is all about. i may have mentioned my parents a few times in this campaign. [laughter] once or twice. the sense of security that we have, the comfort they took from believing that britain would always be better for their children, the hope, not high-minded or idealistic but a hope that working class families like mine could build their lives around. it is a hope that may not burn brightly in britain at the moment, but we have earned the mandate to relight the fire. that is the purpose of this party and this government. we said we would end the chaos, and we will. we said we would turn the page, and we have. today we start the next chapter, but given the work of change, the mission of national renewal and start to

the labour party secured a landslide win after 14 years of conservative rule.tarmer's labour won 410 seats. that is well above the 326 needed in the parliament with labour on track for the largest majority of any party since the new labour secured victory in 1997 under tony blair. >> the mandate like this comes with great responsibility. our task is nothing less than renewing the ideas that hold this country together. national renewal. whoever you are, wherever you started in life, if you work hard, if you play by the rules, this country should give you a fair chance to get on. it should always respect your contribution and we have to restore that. >> the night delivered historic defeat for the right-wing conservative party now standing at 120. that leaves the party set to record the lowest seat total in its history. where do those seats go? to labour, but some picking up seats from the conservatives, in particular, reform with four seats. we have a new mp in nigel farage. the greens party having a fairly terrific night as well. a lot of suggestion which domina

the labour party had won this fair and square.ith that said, that victory is colossal but fragile. 34% of the vote, you know, imagine they don't have a particularly popular time in office. and in five years time, they've lost 5 or 6% of that vote, then they're in real trouble. it's possible, i think, in today's politics that whilst if you get a bit more popular, you can double your number of seats, if you get a bit less popular, you can halve your number of seats. or in the conservative party's case, lost two thirds of them. i think those sort of swings and results are actually going to be the norm in politics going forward. it's not going to be a stable thing in which we just look at a handful of swing seats. i think most of the countries on the table now, i want to know what you think about this. >> did you stay up and watch it and if you did as well, which of the seats were your kind of moments that made you go, oh my gosh, look at this. didn't see that coming, which ones were you particularly happy about? which ones were you p

the labour party is very fractious.his will come as no surprise to anyone, but it's fractious because it's made up of different components. it's made up of the trade union element, it's made up of those those backers individually. it's made up of people with very different interests. the cooperatives all over the place, and they all have different opinions on different things. so keeping them together anyway is difficult. then you've got the electorate and of course that coalition that the labour party needs to win. so there are lots. so when they're in power, the more people the better to try and pass the legislation. but there will i know some of the candidates and i know there will be questions and there will be challenges to the leadership almost as soon as they try and pass legislation about different things. so, you know , all the things. so, you know, all the fun that we talk about, tom, all the fun that we get to report on in politics, it will still be there. but i think the more votes for labour, the better cha

they've now turned their guns without mixing metaphors on the labour party and the labour party werei say, they were not complaining about it. in 2017 or 2019, and also, you know, the labour party is now saying they want to reduce the heat in politics. you try being a jewish person in 2017 or 2019, when the labour party was anti—semitic, towards a large group of people living in in the uk, you try being my ex colleague chris clarkson, who angela rayner shouted tory scum at in the chamber of the house of commons. they've changed their mind now that they're in government, but when they're in opposition, they were encouraging in many ways this type of appalling behaviour and in a way they're reaping what they sowed themselves. >> yeah, i mean obviously labour will say, well, the fact that they're doing it to us now is a sign that we have got a changed labour party, isn't it? and, you know, people can make of that what they will. let's just try to come up with some form of solution. how do we actually stop this? because, you know, we've got a media that's more obsessed with going after s

you said that you owe tony blair, the labour party owes tony blair a great debt.ce you were speaking at, speaking to me on the today programme on other occasions, has often said he wished he'd been more radical, more quickly in government. he'd realised the power he had with that big majority. have you learned from that? do you want to be more radical than people think you're being? well, we've been out of power for 14 years, and we shouldn't waste a moment. this is the chance to implement change and we're in a position now where we've got a good majority for the next few years. i do also have to say, though, this was an argument during the campaign as well as after it, having a big majority doesn't give you any more money. it doesn't magic up money, nor does it mean, as some of the right—wing newspapers were suggesting, that somehow there would be this change in the character of the labour party if it had a big majority, that somehow we'd all become things that we are not. that won't happen. but i do believe, you know, we are there to govern, we're there to do th

the labour party has won asking.eral election. they took 33.9% of the votes across the country, winning 412 seats. so that was a third of the votes. but yet two thirds of the seats within the house of commons, they picked up more than 9.6 million votes, whereas the reform party picked up over 4 million. yet they didn't have half the number of seats. the conservatives took a —20 point drop from 2019. they won 121 seats, so that was 6.8 million votes. and of course, sunak kept his seat. but his leaving downing street now, despite winning just five seats, reform uk 14.3% of the vote, the third best party vote share but 4 million votes overall. the lib dems behind reform 12% of the vote share but 3.5 million votes, 71 seats. how does that work? greens plaid cymru and got less than 3 million votes between them . so what do you between them. so what do you think? is it time to change the electoral system at all? i mean, joining me now, matthew laza and also lizzie cundy. lizzie cundy, what do you think? >> i think it total

this is a changed labour party. keir starmer , he might be a and keir starmer, he might be a bit boring, but he's done this. >> but that boring factor may have played a role in this. gloria and jeff because if the vote share is, for instance, below 40% and that's what was secured by jeremy corbyn as unpopular as he might now be with keir starmer, he got 40% in both 2019 and indeed 2017, because one factor of those two elections was the absence of the brexit party as it was then. now reform. so if that vote share is below 40% and yet they have this extraordinary large majority, the fourth biggest in history, it's not the supermajority that was projected, although i'm heanng was projected, although i'm hearing on my whatsapp groups that actually it might be a bit too punchy to put the conservatives at one, three, one and even reform at 13. it might level out a bit, but if he's got under 40, jeff, that does think make things problematic. also, he's not popular, is he? tony blair went into government on i think plus 23.

amy: but first to britain where the labour party has one power for the first time in 14 years as labour party leader keir starmer becomes prime minister, tens of thousands marched in london for an immediate gaza ceasefire, including the former labour leader jeremy corbyn. he kept his long-standing seat after running as an independent against labour. >> [indiscernible] ceasefire now. amy: jeremy corbyn will join us from london. all that and more, coming up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. in france, the recently formed leftist coalition the new popular front pulled off a surprise victory in the second round of parliamentary elections sunday. the left-green alliance came together in a bid to stave off the far-right after marine le pen's national rally party made major advances in the first round and in recent eu elections. but the new popular front, which won 182 seats in the national assembly, still fell short of the 289 seats required for an absolute majority. sunday's results come as a major blow to not only the far-right which ca

labour towards the labour party. as in 1997 under tony blair, and it is an even more remarkable achievement because they were coming from so far back. but this swing from a big conservative majority to a big labour majority is likely something which we could see happen the other way, perhaps in just five years time. the support for keir starmer, it seems at the moment, is very broad indeed , but it doesn't broad indeed, but it doesn't seem to be very deep. the first evidence for that is that low vote share the other evidence is that there are a lot of marginals. now, a lot of seats in scotland, which just went over to labour but were almost saved by the snp. keir starmer is really, really aware of that. he has a big majority, but he also has a huge challenge on his hands and he knows it. >> olivia. of course, the new prime minister has plenty to get stuck into from here forth, but do you think he's going to have one eye on nigel farage? his first big speech post—election? i think in what, an hour's time ? i think in

the labour party still firmly in the lead by 10:00 p.m. we will have an idea of the result as the exit poll is released. bloomberg's uk corporate lizy burden joining us now to walk through the likely outcomes. lizy, what are we looking at potentially in terms of what could come through at the opened the vote thursday? >> all the polls have indicated that it's going to be a labor victory. the question is how big will that majority be? let me take you through the scenarios set out by the book makers in order of likelihood. start out with scenario one. a labour majority of 250 seats. the conservatives are warning this this could be a super majority, a term in the lexicon anatases new one but the reason that conservatives are warning about it is because the labour party will have power to pass the legislation. labour dismisses that as a desperate bid at the last minute for conservatives. there would be pressure on dahl me to be bolder about his economic agenda bloomberg economic says that would be a boom for the uk economy. some economists say

labour party, once by what the labour party, once by what the labour party once represented, is utterlye, never to return for good or ill. it's interesting always to remember that the original logo of the fabian society, founded in 1884 and dedicated to achieving socialism, not by revolution but by stealth, was that self—same wolf in sheep's clothing. the fabians , still alive and fabians, still alive and sneaking, are named after a roman general, fabius, remembered for his tactic of patiently wearing down his enemies over time. now the empty, heartless marionette that is labour has cast aside the wants of workers safe borders, stable communities, energy that's affordable and reliable , that's affordable and reliable, employment based on merit and not to meet inclusivity and diversity targets. labour now, just like the conservatives before and as i said at the top, the other side of the uniparty coin is every bit as empty, disingenuous, existing only to serve the needs of the globalist agenda , its representatives agenda, its representatives being no more than factotums puppeteers moved

labour party members in their manifesto _ years to come.festo amongst other things of course the nhs and education. the ministerfor things of course the nhs and education. the minister for those departments already been appointed, what are the first steps in starting to fulfil some of those promises? i think of the education side, what they'll do very quickly as they will bring in the tax on private schools, taxing them vat which will mean that they get that money and they will spend it more inside schools to hire teachers, i think they said 6500 new teachers, i think they said 6500 new teachers across the state school system, so that's an easy tax measure to do, that will can be done in the next fiscal statement which will be done around the autumn time, that something on paper which is quite straightforward even if it's more complex and carrying it out. the more difficult part will be when it gets to the health challenges, wes streeting, the new health secretary said he wants to have a wide—ranging reform of the health service which will

, the class war hasn't gone from the labour party.tempt at class wan they've just got the wrong target. >> it is. i agree with you. i think that the 20% vat on private schools is cruel. it's vindictive, it's designed to divide. but on this issue, ella, we can talk a little bit about both. even though we're up against the clock a little bit. i think that eton is doing a good thing here by demonstrating that you can be strict with access to phones for kids. >> yeah. to me it seems common sense that it's a bit like you can't suck sweets in the classroom and you can't smoke in the playground. i mean, just phones are banned. it's obviously very eton to issue every child with a nokia phone, which they're probably quite expensive these days because they're so retro. but i mean, to me, it's a common sense school sort of rule. but what i don't get on board with is the sort of i think we have a bit of a moral panic going on about phones, which is the idea that a child having this evil thing in their pocket, access to social media, will indefini
