and in northern ireland — the biggest party will be sinn fein, who now have seven mps. losses for the democratic unionist party. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at 0ne. live from westminster, on an historic day. labour has won an historic victory in the general election — confining the conservatives to their worst ever defeat. with two out of the 650 results still to come labour has taken 412 seats — to just 121 for the conservatives. the liberal democrats will have 71 mps in the next parliament, with the snp falling to nine. reform, the greens and plaid cymru will have four mps each, and sinn fein will be the biggest party from northern ireland, with seven. within the last half an hour, sir keir starmner has arrived in downing street as the country's new prime minister. let's cross to our political editor, chris mason, who's there. a real moment of history, chris? yes, an extraordinary few hours and a privilege to witness what has happened here in downing street this morning. the departure of rishi sunak, the choreography of that trip to buckingham palace, s

but worth remembering, sinn fein mps don't take up their seats in the house of commons.s last time but now it's conservatives fearing losses. plaid cymru are hoping to hold on, or gain, in the west and north of wales. for smaller parties like the greens and reform uk, it can be difficult to translate their votes into seats but both will be hoping to have a voice in the commons after the election. if you still have questions ahead of tomorrow's election, head to the bbc news website and app where you'll find details of candidates in your area, guides to party manifestos, interviews with party leaders and links to the recent debates across the bbc. chris is with me. just a few hours to go. your thoughts?— just a few hours to go. your thoughts? this is a landmark election. _ thoughts? this is a landmark election, because _ thoughts? this is a landmark election, because no - thoughts? this is a landmark election, because no party i thoughts? this is a landmark. election, because no party has ever won five elections in a row in the modern era, that is the brutal truth that co

last time, the democratic unionist party took eight, sinn fein followed closely behind with seven, the party had won. massive changes are not expected. but if the dup loses any ground, it could lead to sinn fein, who want a united ireland, taking the lead. they are already the biggest party at assembly and council level, they will want to make it a hat—trick at westminster. if they manage it, it will lead to inevitable debate about the constitutional future of this place. it may all come down to one or two seats, but in northern ireland even small changes can shape the big picture. once the votes have been cast, the results will come through overnight tomorrow, into the early hours of friday. 0ur deputy political editor vicki young is here to talk us through some of the key things to look out for. this is the electoral map made up of 650 constituencies. boundaries have altered since the last election to reflect population changes. a party needs 326 seats to win a majority in the house of commons. now here's a reminder of the party leaders who fought the 2019 election. they've all been

in northern ireland, the main political parties aren't in play, but overall sinn fein have overtakenof vote share and also in terms of seats. but they won't take them up at westminster. one of the stories of the night, the low turnout. everywhere you looked last night, there were senior conservative figures losing their seats. perhaps the most significant was the former prime minister liz truss, who lost her majority of more than 2a,000 in what had been one of the safest tory seats. rishi sunak said he'd heard the anger and disappointment of voters, and the inquest has already begun into why the conservative vote collapsed. here'sjoe pike. the candidates, please, to join me on the stage... it was a predawn postmortem. as a party, the conservatives must come back together, look deep in our political souls, and ask some uncomfortable questions. as one catastrophic conservative campaign concluded, another battle began. do you plan to stand for leader, kemi? the search for a successor. is it time for a newjob? former business secretary kemi badenoch is tipped to run, as is ex—immigration

is this a british government sinn fein trust? — fein trust? striking the good friday agreement. we want this british government to be at the height of only that agreement, fulfilling that agreement in all of its parts and we are going to work very constructively for that to happen because the challenges we face as a society are real and the opportunities as well are there. —— to grasp. i think we need to sound a note or real optimism today that we can move forward together, work closely together to honour the good friday agreement, to ensure public services are funded correctly in the north of ireland, to work on pressing issues like the issue of immigration together. we look forward to that. and from that, trust is built brick by brick. good morning. reporter asks question. the visit _ reporter asks question. the visit here _ reporter asks question. the visit here has— reporter asks question. the visit here has to - reporter asks question. the visit here has to be - reporter asks question. the visit here has to be a i the visit here has to be

in northern ireland, sinn fein won the most seats for the first time ever in a general election.ke its seats at westminster, we'll hear what that might mean for the future of northern ireland from sarah girvin in a moment. but first let's head to wales — where the conservatives suffered a total wipe—out. in 2019, they managed to win 12 seats, making big gains in brexit—voting areas, particularly in the north east of the country. but last night, every inch of blue was erased from the map. labour won 27 of the 32 seats — with plaid cymru and the liberal democrats taking the rest. here's our welsh correspondent hywel griffith. a red letter day for monmouth. now back in labour's colours for the first time in almost 20 years, its people persuaded just about by their message. well, i don't want to go with the political thing of "we needed a change," but we needed a change. met up with family yesterday and they all had the same opinion. they may have voted conservative in the past, but yesterday the three of us as groups voted labour. no wonder the party wanted to come here to celebrate

in northern ireland — sinn fein are now the largest single party — holding seven of the 18 seats in theotland the snp were big losers — losing 38 seats, leaving them with just nine elected members in westminster. let's start with labour — and sir keir starmer. his first official business — once the outcome of the election was confirmed — was to travel to buckingham palace, for his formal appointment as prime minister. the meeting with king charles was held, as is traditional, in private — but buckingham palace did issue this video of the moment the monarch met the politician. after that — it was a short trip back to his new residence at ten downing street. he and his wife victoria travelled the last few yards to the famous front door by foot — the people you can see greeting them on the pavement are labour party supporters, who'd been allowed into the gated street for the morning. sir keir then made his first speech as prime minister.. my government will fight every day until you believe again. from now on, you have a government unburdened by doctoring guided only by the determination t

history is made as sinn fein becomes the biggest party from northern ireland, with seven seats.ook five seats, while the greens and plaid cymru will have four mps each. independents and others make up the remaining. there is one seat — inverness — left to declare. labour's victory is largely on the back of a dramatic decline in support for the conservatives. back in 2019, much of the uk was a sea of blue tory seats. but now, so many have changed hands. 0ur political editor chris mason is here. what an extraordinary night and day, huge change. yes, after a decade of change, we at the scottish independence referendum, conservative governments are a small minority of —— majorities, boris johnson's landslide victory of five years ago, the brexit referendum, and underlined that change, a pattern of stability, as far as parties have spent considerable periods of time in downing street. 0nly periods of time in downing street. only the fourth time today that we have seen a transition of power from conservatives to labour or labour to conservatives, 1979, 97, 2010, and now 2024, so quite

sitting there, you know, and yeah, that's right. >> of course sinn fein, you know, they can gets. >> what are they claiming. they get expenses. >> they get they get office space, they get all sorts of perks. >> expenses. what are they, what are they expenses? mcdonald's, burger king i spoke to a soldier once, though, who was talking about the allegiance because he makes allegiance to the royal family at that time, it was to the queen. >> i asked him what happens if the queen attacks me? you know, as a subject, are you protecting me or the queen? and it's the queen, right? in this case, now it's the king. if the if the king now. machine gun a whole load of civilians. yeah, he would if. i'm just saying if the king's speech might get exciting, you know, yeah. then the army would have to protect them against and kill the citizens. okay. >> that sucks. i'm going to guess that that hypothetical is an unlikely outcome. >> so let's just the point, though, is it? >> this is excited, by the way, who who represents me the first time that someone's done their pledge in welsh, the new, forei

>> i think the only thing to gain out of it keeps sinn fein sweet.position of the northern ireland office and of government, because sinn fein present a big threat to them, and therefore they've got to keep them happy. >> all right, sammy, look, thank you very much for your time. this evening. always great to have you on the show. sammy wilson there. who's the dup mp? look, downing street sources have told the times no decision has been made on this stadium and said that it was overblown to suggest that mrs gray was personally dominating negotiations. i just don't understand why she's involved at all, chief of staff , maybe i'm all, chief of staff, maybe i'm missing something here. maybe i'm missing something here. but i'm missing something here. but i think it is a bit odd coming up, i think it is a bit odd coming up , is labour right to announce up, is labour right to announce plans to renationalise the railways? will it plunge us back into the chaos of the 1970s? you also have to bear in mind the fact that they're doing more to, as they see it, bo

sinn fein became northern ireland's largest party in the british parliament the first time. the former labour leader jeremy corbyn easily retained his longtime seat after running as an independent in his london district against labour. in one of his first moves, starmer declared the u.k. rwanda deportation plan dead and buried. we will go to the u.k. for more after headlines and speak with mp jeremy corbyn. voters in iran have elected masoud pezeshkian as its new president. the reformist candidate defeated hard-liner saeed jalili on saturday. pezeshkian is a heart surgeon who had served as health minister under reformist president mohammad khatami. pezeshkian has criticized iran's mandatory hijab law for women and has promised to disband iran's morality police. he spoke in tehran on saturday. >> i pledge to continue to be a listening ear for your words and a voice for the voiceless and rejected. amy: saturday's election was held six weeks after iranian president ebrahim raisi died in a helicopter crash. we will have more on the election later in the show. israel's war on gaz

and also he is herejust a matter of days after sinn fein, the irish republican party who wants a unitedestminster. they're already the biggest party at council and assembly level, and that has really re—energized a lot of chat about the possibility of a future referendum on irish unity. he was pressed several times on that. sir keir starmer, the new prime minister, was. he's previously said he didn't think that a border poll would be on the horizon. he was pushed again today. he sort of talked about the good friday agreement, the fact that his party was a party of the good friday agreement and that what would happen next would be set out in all of that. so i have to say, if we look at in the round, a really, really positive start for keir starmer here at stormont after a few years that has seen really bad relationships with the conservative government, this is off to a good start. sir keir starmer is now on his way to wales on the latest stage stage of his uk tour. i think the talks here in wales will revolve almost entirely around town to steal in port talbot. one of the two blast furn

she came down and met with sinn fein. sinn fein.nity and we don't support sinn fein in coolock. so i don't know why she's down talking to them. >> well, you see there, there goes another problem, of course, eamonn, because sinn fein are the largest party in the repubuc the largest party in the republic of ireland. they're not in power because they don't have enough to actually form a government. it's a coalition government. it's a coalition government here. and the thinking is that in the next few months, there will be a general election here. so you've got to ask the question politically, is there games being played here to try and grab other votes or split votes from the communities that are being represented here? so, over the next week or so, things will ramp up here unless there is serious engagement. and these people feel very, very frustrated that 15, up to 1500 young men will be placed in their community that has no infrastructure to deal with them, and they very much feel like a forgotten community. >> yeah. dougie, can i j

that's why sinn fein. i don't agree with sinn fein, but that's why they're not in parliament.r the oath, >> glenn says on your say, if you don't pledge to the king, then you shouldn't be able to get into parliament, he says. simple. i like it sometimes. the most simple solutions are the best ones. glenn, i like you and i like your thinking. glenn. many people disagree with you and think that you should absolutely be doing that if you want your place in parliament. look, that's all i've got time for, the big man, nigel farage, is up next, thanks to my panel. thanks to you. don't go anywhere and i'll see you tomorrow night. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar, sponsors of weather on gb news >> hello. good evening. welcome to your latest gb news. weather update wednesday is going to be a much sunnier day and a drier day for most of us. it's also going to be feeling considerably warmer for this evening, though we've still got low pressure in charge across eastern areas , so charge across eastern areas, so still some heavy rain to come through some parts of this evening. but behi

thursday's general election has seen sinn fein become not only northern ireland's largest party at westminster's time to "prepare for a new future together on this island". it was a disappointing night for the democratic unionist party — which is down to five seats. wimbledon is using artificial intelligence for the first time to protect players from online death threats and abuse. abusive messages online that are directed at players will be flagged by the tournament's ai tool , and can be used by police to catch online trolls. high—profile players are often targeted via social media , naomi 0saka was subjected to 32,000 abusive media. you're live with bbc news. efforts to secure a ceasefire deal and a hostage release in gaza are gaining momentum, after weeks of stalled negotiations. the head of israel's spy agency mossad returned from qatar's capital doha on friday after an initial meeting with mediators. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's office says indirect negotiations with hamas will resume next week. 0ur middle east correspondent sebastian usher has the latest from jerusalem. w

, sinn fein tried to move away from these working class areas to the middle ground under mary louhs ago, sinn fein were down 14% in the polls. now they have lost the trust of these areas , these working class areas, these working class areas. and if a general election is called within the next 2 or 3 months in the republic of ireland, sinn fein will lose. they are the largest party in the dail, not yet in power. they haven't enough to form a government, but those seats will government, but those seats will go to other political parties. so you have to ask the question here. is there more at play with, this community in coolock? are they being used in some sort of political way or are they really very much concerned about who is coming into their community? this has went on for three months. it is coming to a head now because they are looking at opening this site within the next few weeks and bringing the first of these immigrants in, but it is all very reminiscent of northern ireland back in the 60s and 70s, when the police force were set between two communities and division happe

if you include sinn fein who don't turn up.they take a bit of pressure off the numbers, but you end up with quite a big chunk of people, including sometimes ministers, standing at the end. i mean, it's very rare that all mps turn up. i mean, that's the truth of it. the chamber is pretty empty. a lot of the time. now, prime minister's questions is the moment where most turn up. even then it won't be all of them. but i think someone said that the commons seats about 400, maybe 450, so there's never enough room. anyway, the difference this time is that it's so one sided because labour have so many mps, it means that it's really, really, uh, squashed on their side. and then there is a lot more room on the other side. so they sit on the steps, they sit at the end. and i think today you have a gallery going round the outside and at the top above the chamber. so that's a press gallery, a public gallery. and at the sides there's more seats. and i think there are a lot of labour mps sitting up there on the labour side above sir keir sta

but sinn fein , of the union. but sinn fein, stay away, stay away.ho don't have representation in westminster, it's a real shame. and disgrace. now i have a new mp tonight, a lady called pat cullen who was the head of the rcn here in the uk, and she has said she doesn't need to go to westminster. she can do everything from outside of westminster and bring the people to her. i have never heard such arrogance in all my life, i have to say, and i've heard some arrogant things over the past couple of weeks, but thatis the past couple of weeks, but that is incredible arrogance for those northern ireland representatives who do take up the seats and are there and represent their constituents, and what difference will all that we're talking about here? >> what what role do they play in the in the. >> well, they play a very important role because if you look at the uk as a whole, there are things that are reserved to westminster and you need to have a northern ireland voice there on those issues, particularly in defence. given that we are involved in this ter

sinn fein's vote going down there.t seat. we'll see if that actually happens. the last time that did happen in that area was in 2010. there's been problems in there over immigration coming across from the south that has their own problems in the south of ireland and east belfast. this is gavin robinson, the mp who is the leader of the dup, is really going neck and neck at this minute in time with the leader of the alliance party, naomi long. we're also hearing that the dup could probably lose a seat in south antrim and foyle at this minute in time. seat in south antrim and foyle at this minute in time . is also at this minute in time. is also looking very tight and this is because the tuv reform sister party has stood in these areas. and what has actually happened, it has split the votes two ways and then you have the ulster unionist party in it. it's three ways. so you have an area that has a huge majority of unionism, but because they've split the vote, the alliance party is sneaking in between my pick of the night,

i mean, you mentioned sinn fein there, sinn fein has just released this new policy document, on on theue . and they say the asylum issue. and they say how communities need to be consulted, but they specifically also say that people don't have also say that people don't have a veto on who moves to their area, i.e. you can't say no. so at a press event yesterday, i was asking the party's leader, mary lou mcdonald , what kind of mary lou mcdonald, what kind of a consultation is it because the government has the exact same policy, by the way, they've all used this line. oh nobody has a veto on who lives in their area. if that's the case, then what kind of a consultation doesn't allow you to say no? the whole part of a consultation is it's to consult. i'm asking you, hey, locals, what do you think of this? do you agree? do you consent? and so if you've started off a consultation but you're admitting that people are not allowed to reject what's happening, then that's just a railroading by another name. >> ben. >> ben. >> it is amazing to listen to someone like mary lou mcdonald telling peopl
