Keir Starmer’s Labour Party has secured a landslide victory in the UK election. “We did it!” Starmer, the incoming prime minister, said in his victory speech. “Change begins now.”

In a surprise move, outgoing Conservative Prime Minister Rishi Sunak used his speech during his constituency count earlier to reveal that he had called Starmer to concede.

The Labour leader, who was just addressing supporters in London, acknowledged the “great responsibility” of his mandate and pledged to “govern for every single person” in the UK.

Quotes from his speech, include: “A mandate like this comes with a 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.”

“We have to return politics to public service. Show that politics can be a service for good. Make no mistake, that is the great test of politics in this era. The fight for trust is the battle that defines our age.”

“By all means, enjoy this moment… But use it to show to the rest of the country, as we must, that this party has changed, that we will serve them faithfully, govern for every single person in this country.”

“Don’t forget how we got here. This morning, we can see that the British people have voted to turn the page on 14 years. But don’t pretend that there was anything inevitable about that. There’s nothing preordained in politics. Election victories don’t fall from the sky. They are hard won, and hard fought for. And this one could only be won by a changed Labour Party.”
