      The transfer of power is immediate. At 03:00am Starmer became Prime Minister. The Civil service all studied the Manifestos and are ready to greet the new team. Even all of Sunaks belongings and furniture is packed days before so Starmer can take up residence immediately.

    The 34% that Labour got is really misleading, in my opinion. The two main left-of-centre parties got 34% and 14% respectively, but there was a concerted effort to coordinate the vote, so we could look at the two parties together as an informal voting block with 48% of the electorate.

    Its only Americans who say things like, Rishi Cannot be a PM for Christian country, bulabulabula, if that was a problematic, he wont be a PM in the first place. he would have to drop his candidacy for Tory leadership. UK is technically a CoE country, however ones religion in politic does not matter as long as the politician does not bring onto it, and system is remarkably religion free since 1950s. because God may be in everyone's heart, but politic is agenda's of human beings not God.

      In all seriousness though, I'm relieved and delighted Rishi Sunak's heritage and religion played absolutely no part in the election. (save for a handful of odious Reform campaigners). It was all about policy.

    2:45 "... the people who will be shaping policy coming here and _getting their marching orders_ from the new Prime Minister..." Either the Labour government is beginning in unprecedented chaos or the reporter is using this idiom very differently to that standard in British English (viz 'to get marching orders' = 'to be sacked'). I wonder whether his usage is common in US English.
