- Sir Keir Starmer said he had a "mountain to climb" to rebuild the Labour Party from the ashes of its defeat in 2019.
So who is the man who so successfully sold a message of "change"?
Our people and politics correspondent Nick Martin has been speaking to those who know the incoming prime minister best.

People didnt vote for him. They voted against the Tories. He won by default.
True, cons lost end of story
Labour only got 35% of the vote, only a landslide because of FPTP they don't have huge public backing
@@Nihilisticallythey are the same party. Just different puppets.
Voted against the Tories by voting in a Tory
A lot of people voted for him, actually.
Yet another middle manager who got the job because he managed to hang on. He did not so much succeed as survive as the rest of the party imploded and the Tories destroyed themselves.
Be nice to think he is going to make a positive change but I have no faith and little hope!
Three Labour government in my lifetime. Every one left us worse off and our country in a weaker positiiin.
God help us all.
We already know what he will be like after he admitted being in favour of the Davos plan, don't think for one minute he will be working for us the British public.
Not my pm. I despise him. Traitor.
Just another totalitarian demon
No thanks, he no p.m. as he is a weak leader as he never put's the interest of the British people first . Watch this space and see how he destroy what left of our country.
A WEF stooge which is all he ever was !😮😮
Its like swapping syphilis for cancer
Bloody hell lol😂
They are all sellouts
There's 3 good apples in parliament and that's it
Why do we even listen to rich people on how we should be living?
A useless one who won by default.
Tories are useless mate.
His voters could have gone for anyone else but they didn’t
It is just about to get even worse with labour
The most boring PM since John Major. The next 5 years are a write off as far as I'm concerned.
At least major had some sense of direction this is Biden without dementia!!
Boring is safe
Boomer 👀 😂
I can see our country having a lot of Palestinian refugees...just watch.
WEF puppet.
Poo-pet more like
HE... stated he prefers Davos to Wefminster
@@DarrenLambert-yu5pqhe stated
@@Verdent777 🤣😂🤣😂 how did that happen?...
Now we are in trouble! By the way his dad was a tool maker
And he’s made a spanner that doesn’t even fit any nuts or bolts 😂😂😂
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
No doubt the pathetic stain on humanity that is the mainstream media will tell us how great he is and how lucky we plebs are to have him, well we can see through your BS these days.
👍
The last one had blood stained hands this one’s semen staines😂😂
yup
Yeeeaaah! We won't get fooled again! Oh no,wait😐
@@Captain.Pugwash Great song right?! Worst part about it is Labour are going to suck so badly that in 5 maybe 10 years time people will say 'The Tories to the rescue' and they wonder why it never gets better.
This will be an unmitigated disaster.
Up pops Blair brown etc no change whatever
Well just as long as I can get my tattie scones 🎉😂😂
@@trevorglasper2084
The Starmer horror show !!
The type who done as he's told like all since Blair, welcome to "steak holder capitalism" on roids.
Congratulations Central Banks, military industrial complex, pharma, Israel and millions of wage suppressing migrants.
An absolute disaster waiting to happen.
It already has they’re just changing shifts !!
Is that a woman on his arm? What a tool maker.
The Labour Party won the United Kingdom general election, but several concerns arise. Firstly, how can foreign investment be attracted if taxes are to be raised across the board? Secondly, where will the workers come from to build 1.5 million new residential units? Thirdly, the levy of 20% VAT on more than 1,000 public schools could mean the closure of these private institutions. How will the unemployed teachers be rehoused?
With an overwhelming majority, the Labour Party government will be able to pass legislation at will over the next two years. This means that far-left forces within the party might hijack this honeymoon period to pursue their agendas. It is in the Labour Party’s nature to increase public expenditure, create more bureaucratic posts for social welfare, and propose numerous unrealistic social policies, including prioritizing issues such as transgender affirmative action and education. This could lead to significant public spending, some of which may be wasted.
There is no mention of defense spending in their platform. Many Britons understand that this election is less a victory for the Labour Party and more a defeat for the Conservative Party, which has been in power for 14 years but has suffered from fatigue and an inability to deliver. To save the party, Labour leader might need to emulate Tony Blair’s approach from 1997, balancing leftist domestic policies with a right-leaning stance in foreign affairs and national defense. However, the free market economy is now dominated by global monopolies, making traditional methods outdated.
Tony Blair, who followed Bush into the Iraq War, became infamous for his actions. What’s the plan and fit for the current Labour Party? It’s all uncertain. The risk is that extreme polarization could occur, leading to significant societal issues. In a few years, the British voters may suffer the consequences.
He’ll be advocating military intervention in Europe!!
All the things Tories got wrong are the things Labour has promised to do.
My grand view of it all having grown up in Eastern Europe and now living in the UK. I've seen this back in E.Europe. When things go bad, people want a "change", whatever it may be. In the West people are rightfully unhappy with the status quo hences "the changes" - Starmer won in the UK, I think similarly will happen in US with Trump winning & Le Pen in France. Will anything improve from what I've seen in Eastern Europe when things go bad? - 100% NO.
"his dad was a toolmaker" yes we know that because he's told us about 100 times in the last 6 months. Christ we are in trouble.
Inadvertently calling his son a tool.
...and what a tool his father made in Shartmer...
I wish more people actually knew that his Dad owned the Toolmaker business.
Get ready for a cold winter of discontent with the unions walking all over him
Toolmakers were highly skilled but another trade driven out of he Country by Brownboutsourcing our jobs
Jimmy Saville protected by this man
Thats a lie. Dont cry now Tory
@@destro1989 Nope, its true
Corrupt, and a liar!
I don’t think 🤔 labor can’t solve the problems….in fact labor will in be trouble soon 🔜
CLARKSON FOR PM
he'd probably be Labour after 3 years as a farmer
@@Paul-yk3qw Someone doesn't watch Clarkson.
@@RillUK
Or they do 😂😂
@@RillUK definitely do. he’s been much more vocal about climate change in the last couple of years
@@Paul-yk3qw He was talking about how awful Labour are and how he'd never vote for them in one of the farm shows. I'd noticed the climate change nonsense too, probably because the ridiculous laws are effecting him as a farmer.
Brand new day and it's raining...
That’s not rain it’s tears 😢😢
We are fucked with this guy
Royally so
Britain fell last night rip
The vote count for Starmer's own constituency was down by 50%, total votes for Labour was hardly any different from the defeat of Corbyn in 2019, yet this time it results in a landslide victory, totally bizarre and unrepresentative system we have !
Mad respect to Reform voters for making this possible 😅
Everything about him screams 'weasel' even the way he speaks. Pure weakness.
Farage our last hope to save the country what a shame
Great, we've got someone who ignored Jummy Savile running the country.
How on earth can reform only have 4 seats with 4 million votes while Lib Dems have 71 seats with less votes?
Who has voted for Sunak to stay in as MP?
Despite having a short time to form, not having candidates in every constituency and media didn’t even give Reform fair coverage during the run up to the election they still had a turnout of 4 million. I think that’s says it all
Next snap election I’ll vote reform if we have a candidate around here.
I believe election was rigged, it just doesn't make sense for me. Mainstream media put labour in favour from beginning
It's the oddity of the First Past the Post voting system. A lot of Lib Dem votes "counted" whereas Reform votes didn't. Under PR it would all be a very different story.
its called a FIX I feel sorry for reform voters who believed it all 🤣🤣😂😆
Jim’ll fix it !!
Same circus. Different clowns.
the type of guy to protect paedos from prosecution
Don't landslides cause a lot of damage to communities and countries when they happen ?
Not as much as wishy washy super elites.
It definitely did in 1997. That landslide led to the deaths of over 1 million Iraqis.
@@choughed3072don’t talk sense like this they just ignore and cherry pick their facts
House prices have never been the same since that land slide. The sweet irony of folks moaning about super elites, and yet it was the others who opened the doors. Happy renting!
@@owenlong2501
They’re one in the same😂😂😂
Labour is no different from Tories.. Both DNA's are same..
There’s never been such an unprincipled and morally bereft prime minister.
Blair, Brown, Sunak....we've had quite a few tbh.
@@APEXGuerilla I hate all of those 3, but the first 2 actually had deeply held beliefs. This starmer is a husk.
@@boshankers12 They're all war criminals 🤷♂️
Beethoven's Funeral March is playing in my mind as I mourn Britain's impending demise.
That anyone could vote Tory, Labour, Lib or SNP is a total mystery to me...........We are doomed.
😂😂 Cry more
@@progfoxmusicYou’ll learn.
@@aclark903 He won't.
What a wonderful democracy Reform got the third most amount of votes but only 4 seats .Labour won, not because people want them .But because they didn't want the tories. Everyone I spoke to yesterday said I don't like Labour, but I can't vote tory .What a time to be alive .
Agree i detest tories . I voted the one party who had far best chance of ousting 14 yrs of power out and why i voted Labour who normally are my vote , but they aint labour of old i feel ..Bit more alike Lib Dems these days
But hey any things better that tories . Things can only get better as line in sing sais 👍😁
Bloody hell steve, your grammar is appalling. What do they teach people in school these days, want to defend their country by voting reform but can't even write their own language properly, it's shocking
@nanashi7779 Thanks sorry it's not up to your standard. Just to clarify, I didn't vote reform. I was just making the point the system stinks
They are surely gonna have to change their leader, Starmer has all the personality of a tree stump!
BOH.....FOR. MY. OPINION. MISTER. NIGEL. FARAGE. IS. ONE. INTELLIGENT. AND. VERY GOOD. MAN. OF UK. PEOPLE. AND. THE. LABOUR. PARTY. IS. NOT. GOOD. FOR. UK. PEOPLE.
Exactly the Same as all the Others...They will serve their Wealthy Donors
Oligarch party 🟥or Oligarch party🟦
He will be like Eric Hitchmough. " i like a curry and pint with friends during lockdowns. but i dont agweee with it in the work plaaaaaace!"
Same circus, different clowns.🎉
well he will take as much as he can for himself during his term as prime minister, doubt that the public will see any improvement
God bless Britain
How the media treat the party's they favour and those they don't is laughably stark.😅
a very short serving one if we dont see some serious change's to immigration
The sheer balls sky must have to make a video like this and leave comments turned on
From my little village in another part of the world he was my mentor through studying human rights law .He is a good man
The country voted for 'change' without knowing what this really meant. I guess we will shortly find out. We really don't know what this man stands for as he flip flops all the time.
A dangerous position we’re in here with this puppet !!
We are in massive trouble aslong as Labour or Conservatives run the country!
In a word: Insipid
Once he goes who from Labour will replace him?? Horror show.
Have a guess.
If they really want to run the country into the ground with chaos then deputy dog!! 😂😂😂
The government has just taken the blue ties off and put red ones on it's the same as it's always been
A question that Sky could never answer without bias.
He didnt win the other guy just lost
Remember Jimmy Saville
TWO HEADS. SAME SNAKE . REVOLUTION NEEDS TO BE NOW
This is going to end very very badly brace yourselves
Quintessential example of the middle class and a positive person personally😁😁😁😁
It's nice to see a serious, sobre, determined, realistic prime minister in office at long last
I think we have an idea of how he will be . Probably indecisive . ineffective and we will all be skint inside 6 months
I havé a panic attack every time I think about … so I have been in panic mode for approx 12 hours straight…
Protected Jimmy Saville from the Police. Has the very same thing in common with the King. What a proud moment for Britain. A vote for Starmer was a vote for Jimmy. Support the Royals? Same thing. 👍👍
and a vote for Israel
They didn't vote labour, they voted to get rid of the cons
Now the now then now then
DIONISE THERON GOOD WORK ...........................STUNNING
Everyone in Asian community knew rishi wouldn't win votes by public, he's brown guy but he can make himself a billionaire After five consecutive conservatives priminister
We got labour in power, best of luck.
Get Farage in WE NEED CHANGE FOR THE BETTER NOT A PUPPET
How on earth did he not win!!!
@@tmar8959 because it's rigged 😒
Love this man congratulations Britain
Like Erich Honecker but more mistrusting of the population.
No thank he makes me feel nauseous
Nothing like some sweet propaganda to start the day.
Imagine clapping for anyone anymore. We’re thick af mate. 😂
We don't like him, we hate Rishi
Dinghy divers be flooding in soon 😂😂😂😂😂 RIP UK 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Literally looks and sounds like a Wallace and Gromit character.
Win is a Win 👏🏽💯👏🏽💯 Keir Starmer 💯👏🏽💯👏🏽 The Best PM 👏🏽💯👏🏽
Well done Labour.
Starmer performs worse than Corbyn
2019 Labour-Corbyn 10,269,051 votes Share=32.2% Turnout=67.3% Electorate voting Labour=21.7%
2024 Labour-Starmer 9,700,244 votes Share=33.9% Turnout=59.9% Electorate voting Labour=20.3%
Title: appalling
Don't care about some fabricated backstory, just care if he is going to make England feel like it was and not some experiment island.
Congratulations 🎊 to labur party hope he could do better for this great country
What is this propaganda?
Same circus, different clowns!
As someone not from the UK, I was totally uninspired by that video of him - yet he crushed at the ballot box 😂
Human rights : new prime minister canceled the Rwanda deportation plan.
I predict barney Rubble will not last 100 days.
The sun just set on the British Empire......RIP Brittania.
Keir starmer protects the grooming gangs
Is that his wife? not seen her all election, I wonder why?
"...and I would like to thank Nigel Farage for splitting the Tory vote..."
I think this is make or break for the UK. If Starmer gets trust of the Uk and manages to lead it to steady growth in the next 5 year, the UK could see a 3rd resurgance, if it's all dead promises, we'll continue down the same path
Whilst we all hope he and his govt will actually do things to improve our lives, we all know that nothing is actually going to change any time soon as this countries finances are so sub optimal. Change starts now, hmm wait till they take a look at the finances.
We are doomed!
