His win also means PM Rishi Sunak's exit from the top job.

Bracing for a landslide victory, Keir Starmer said he will change the country if Labour is voted to power.

"I’ve changed the Labour Party," he said.

"If you put your trust in me by voting Labour, I will change the country," he earlier posted on X.

Thank you, Holborn and St Pancras, for putting your trust in me again.
