Labour has officially won the 2024 general election after reaching the required 326 seats.

Speaking in central London, the next prime minister Keir Starmer says “change begins now”.

“It feels good, I have to be honest,” he tells a cheering crowd.

      Largely the same, but with a small LD bump at least.

      I despair at people.

      Same but there was also an equally sized labour surge that kept the SNP out.

      Labour absolutely need to accept that this was a vote against the Tories and that they’ll really need to make some positive changes that the average person can feel if they want to win the next election.

      The Tories will not be chasing the labour electorate, they will be chasing reform’s. If they can mop up the right vote they will be straight back in to power.

        The age old Labour strategy still work, making the party palatable for business, for when the Tories drown in their own shit .

        The risk I see, is that they won’t do anything anyone will notice, and they will be vulnerable to Right wing looneys next time - either in the form of Conservative Party who move to so far right as squash reform, possibly under Braverman . Imagine that.
