The Heat: UK election

A resounding defeat for conservatives. Labour’s win in the UK’s parliamentary elections ended 14 years of conservative government – securing two-thirds of the seats in the House of Commons. The landslide victory marked a huge turnaround for the party, four and-a-half years after Keir Starmer took over as leader, and less than five since Jeremy Corbyn led them to its worst defeat since the 1930s.
