This guy won, Not because he was the most popular but because he was the least hated. Hopefully he understands this and works for the people to prove himself to the people,.. But I won't hold my breath.
Well he has just made a speech exactly about that, so he definitely understands it. Whether he can stick to it is the question that will define the next five years.
Farage the Fraudster better look over his shoulder and stay away from Russian tea houses.😂Four lousy seats like the tree hugging Greens. He promised Putin so much and he delivered so little.
We don't want performative celebrity politics anymore. It's time for normalcy, politics is about PUBLIC SERVICE, its NOT a TV show.

So true. On one side it is such a wonderful thing for Labour. On the other side, I would not want to be in their shoes because the country has been so messed up by the Conservatives that he has a huge load of mess to clean up. Good luck to him.
As an American, I'm feeling pretty envious of you Brits right now. You guys didn't have to choose between a man with a foot in the grave or a man who tried to overturn democracy. Genuinely, congrats.
I'm looking forward to the return of British Rail.
Cobblers,I’m English and these two traitors are pathetic,Trump has more integrity and courage than they could possibly imagine.
No, just a choice between 2 WEF puppets.
@@theazurefire91 i dont think trump or biden deserve to be called mr president. Their argument, the way they speak, the tone, the sound and all facial expressions , they are acting like spoiled,bad manner kids. Trump especilly looks like a bully
We are a Representative Republic not a democracy and Trump did not try to overthrow our government.
It's not going to change if they're still maintaining the crown..
Good luck to the new pm. I wish him a joyful bringing of peace and treaty in this world.
Brits don't waste any time installing a new PM.
American system is so weird waiting like 3 months before changing
Americans would do well to follow this tradition. The moment the election is declared for the winner, the White House is vacated immediately for the new president (if not the incumbent). No shilly shallying transition period.

The UK didn’t vote for him. Labour only got 1/3 of the popular vote.
Best of Luck. And the beat goes on. Democracy works.
No it doesn't..theyput themselves into the mess they're in when they voted to leave the union..
the price of democracy is eternal vigilence.
Labour is going to be the most unpopular government to be elected yet. It won a majority of seats despite winning only 1/3 of the votes and only a 1% increase in their amount of votes since last election. This just shows that it doesn’t work.
Why do people want this short term job?

God Save The King
Great result for the UK which has a bright future ahead. Starmer will be the PM we need.
Time taken by the UK to declare its elections, campaign, vote, count and to form a new govt is the same time taken by the US between two presidental debates 🤣
Respectful Greetings!
British Nation.
It is a privilege for me and the Angolan people to congratulate British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on his victory in the elections.
Labour made many promises in the party’s quest to win the race, and keeping them will be a gargantuan task that will require tackling Britain’s biggest issues including the cost of living, immigration, and rebuilding the country’s services like the health and transportation systems. A mixture of poor policy and world events outside the government’s control has left the UK’s economy struggling, translating to wage stagnation and lack of investment in state services.
I fully believe that God will guide your nation on the path of progress and I hope that British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer comes to Angola to strengthen diplomatic ties between our people.
Success in your Governance - British Nation!

The king should tell him, avoid meeting America president. You should be ok.
What a brutal blow to Sunak and the Tories. This election is definitely a kick in the underbelly of the Tories. The ppl. are really angry and dispise the Sunak Gov. It did show that they do not believe him to be better than Starmer. Honestly both are non electable to me..but you have to choose the least bad and hatred after all.
Hope they both, and everyone in the comments, have a great weekend 👍
Reform - 4 million votes and 4 seats. LibDem 3.5 million votes and 71(!) seats.

If people don't get how first past the post works then that's on them. It's not tricky to figure out if your votes being wasted on a party and they'll never change it because the party who wins is always one which has benefitted from it.
Well this is first past the post.
You either have this which is not so representative and less democratic, or you have proportional representation, which is very representative and democratic, but produces really weak governments that fights over countless coalitions.
And don’t say Germany, they only worked through proportional representation because throughout the decades they’ve already developed de-facto fixed coalition patterns and agreements, which won’t happen if a sudden change is made…
@@joepickup7305exactly. And I think now LibDems will drop the pledge for proportional representation, as it’s the first time they’ve actually benefited from first past the post.

Not hard to be a prime minister:
Ladies and gentlemen, citizens of the United Kingdom, I am Daniel Anderson, and I stand before you today as a voice for change. As a proud British citizen, I am here to propose a reformation of our very own Parliament, a Parliament that truly represents the people, and upholds the values we hold dear.
The time has come for us to reclaim our freedom of speech. The time has come for us to have a voice that is heard, not silenced by the powers that be. We must demand a Parliament that listens, a Parliament that acts, and a Parliament that puts the interests of the people first.
Our slogan is clear: "Action Now" and "Time for Change". It's time for us to take matters into our own hands and demand real change from our representatives. We must act now to address the pressing issues of our time.
We must address the issue of immigration. We must eliminate the scourge of illegal immigration that plagues our nation. We must ensure that our borders are secure, and that only those who contribute positively to our society are granted entry. We must protect our jobs, our homes, and our way of life. We must defend our values and our culture.
And, ladies and gentlemen, we must bring back the NHS to its former glory. We must make it the world's premier healthcare system once again. We must ensure that every citizen has access to quality healthcare, regardless of their background or financial situation. We must put our people's health and wellbeing above all else. We must invest in our hospitals, recruit more healthcare professionals, and ensure that every citizen has access to the care they need.
We must restore the pride and dignity that once accompanied the NHS. We must ensure that our hospitals are clean, well-equipped, and staffed with compassionate professionals who care about their patients. We must put an end to long wait times, cancelled surgeries, and inadequate care. We must make the NHS a source of national pride once again, a symbol of our commitment to our people's health and wellbeing.
We must maintain strong ties with the Commonwealth, a vital component of our nation's history and future. We must work together with our Commonwealth partners to promote peace, stability, and prosperity. We must uphold our shared values and support each other in times of need.
We must also restore the British Navy to its former greatness. We must ensure that our naval forces are equipped with the latest technology and personnel, so that we can protect our interests and defend our nation. We must maintain a strong and capable naval presence to safeguard our trade routes, promote maritime security, and uphold our commitments to our allies.
We must ensure that the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, as we were voted to do in the 2016 referendum. We must respect the will of the people and work towards a brighter future outside the EU. We must seize the opportunities that Brexit presents and make the most of our newfound sovereignty.
But, my fellow Britons, it is not just about these issues alone. It is about giving you, the people, a voice. It is about giving you the power to demand action from your representatives. It is about giving you the right to hold those in power accountable.
We must be the perfect alternative to Labour and Conservatives. We must be a party that is unafraid to challenge the status quo and deliver real change. We must be a party that puts the people first, not the party or political donors.
It is time for a fresh start. It is time to dissolve all previous parties and start anew. We must build a political system from scratch, one that truly represents the people and their interests. This may be a difficult and challenging process, but I assure you, we will come out stronger and more united than ever before.
We must reform our Parliament to ensure that it truly represents the people. This means implementing measures that allow citizens to directly petition their representatives, hold them accountable, and demand action on pressing matters. We must also ensure that our representatives are chosen by the people, not appointed by political parties or donors.
We must eliminate corruption from our political system. This means implementing strict transparency measures, regulating political donations, and ensuring that our representatives are held accountable for their actions. We must make sure that the people's interests come first, not the interests of the elite or powerful.
We must work together to build a stronger Britain, one that is self-sufficient, reliable, and stable. This means focusing on our nation's essential needs, creating jobs and opportunities for all, and promoting a healthier and happier society. We must take a proactive approach to solving our nation's problems, rather than just reacting to them.
We must create a Britain that is reliable and trustworthy on the world stage. This means maintaining strong ties with our allies, promoting peace and stability, and upholding our values and principles. We must be a nation that others can count on, a nation that is willing to work with others to achieve common goals.
We must create a Britain that is stable and prosperous for all. This means ensuring that our economy is strong
Oh, and like others before me, I will sit on my arse until I resign or get voted out and get a hefty pension for rest of my life....

Congats Starmer, you have choose the right direction for the UK!
Congratulations 🎉 to mr.starmer and mrs. Starmer🎉
I always love the outfit choices the new leader chooses. I wish they would do away with the suits. Throw on a football jersey and bowler hat or something that says British!. Look like a normal British person. At least add a little flair. I'm sure the king is a little more easier when it comes to Decorum. I'm sure the king would love to wear a comfy sweater than a suit. The new First Lady looks Fabulous.
Congratulations 🎊 ❤
And celebrations!

No chance.

Defund BBC first thing and pass that budget to NHS.
The BBC is funded independently of the government. The government has no control over its budget. That would be like suggesting that the government somehow give the revenue of Tescos over to the NHS
@@pastalover2757 you are wrong.
@@epicmonkeydrunk no I'm not. That's literally the reason why the TV license, which funds the BBC, is collected by them, and not just taken via a government tax
@@pastalover2757 you are correct. They are funded by subscription through royal charter which is deemed independent of the government. Now pass those funds to NHS and fyi every organization has a budget. A thorough forensic investigation by an independent body is required as to where the subscription and funds are coming from and that information is to be made public. Defund the BBC and pass that budget to NHS. Healthcare is more important than irrelevant media.
@@prasantdewan61 The BBC is one of the last things that makes Britain great. It’s one of the worlds only completely independent broadcasters, unlike other broadcasters it is bound by Royal Charter to remain politically neutral. I don’t want the UK to become like America and have to deal with toxic hyper partisan television such as Fox News and CNN. The BBC is also hugely important not just for us domestically, but abroad. Countries all around the world use the BBC due to the fact it’s world renowned as a unbiased and generally reliable source of information. And dozens of countries that are too poor to afford their own TV network rely on the BBC World Service for regular programming. The BBC is one of the last true vestiges of UK soft power abroad. Also the BBC doesn’t have to appeal to ratings unlike other networks so they are basically the only major network in the UK to run shows on nature, history, culture, and other important matters, whilst other channels are just pushing comedy shows and mind numbing reality TV which is better for ratings

Have you any evidence for your libellous statement?
@stevebarlow3154
Considering Starmer was head of the CPS and file with multiple victim statements was ignored.
Jimmy was waved through security at bucking palace and Charles stated in the 90s "we are like best friends".
A liable claim against me or thousands of others wouldn't even be entertained.
@@codswallop164 Keir Starmer had absolutely nothing to do with any potential case against Saville. If the CPS didn't proceed against Saville, it means that the case against him wasn't strong enough to get a conviction. I doubt any victim statements were ignored, more likely the victim's statements just were not good enough to get a conviction. Getting a jury to believe that something is beyond reasonable doubt is a very high bar to achieve.
As for King Charles, that statement was made thirty years ago, when Charles probably thought Saville was a harmless eccentric doing good deeds, as most of us did. I doubt very much that Saville was a true friend of Charles in any real sense. Just one of dozens of people who crossed his path each day.
Suggesting anyone was actively helping Saville is getting dangerously close to libel.
