The Labour Party has won  in the UK’s 2024 general election, achieving a majority in parliament as vote counting continues. Labour Leader Keir Starmer is set to become the new prime minister, able to form a majority government.

“We did it,” Starmer declared to supporters at the Tate Modern museum in London.

As of 5 a.m. GMT on Friday, the Labour Party had won 326 of the 650 seats in parliament, ensuring a clear majority.

Outgoing Prime Minister Rishi Sunak acknowledged the result, stating that the British people have “delivered a sobering verdict” and conceded defeat to the Labour Party.

Nigel Farage, leader of the hard-right Reform UK party, finally won a seat after seven unsuccessful attempts. Meanwhile, former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn retained his seat in north London, this time running as an independent.
