Keir Starmer has given a speech in Central London early this morning after winning the 2024 general election. Below is a full transcript of his remarks:
We did it. You campaigned for it, you fought for it, you voted for it, and now it has arrived. Change begins now.
And it feels good, I have to be honest. Four and a half years of work, changing the party. This is what it is for. A changed Labour party, ready to serve our country, ready to restore Britain to the service of working people.
And across our country, people will be waking up to the news, relieved that a weight has been lifted, a burden finally removed from the shoulders of this great nation. And now we can look forward again. Walk into the morning, the sunlight of hope – pale at first, but getting stronger through the day, shining once again on a country with the opportunity after 14 years to get its future back.
