Labour has won the 20204 general election.
Keir Starmer is speaking now:
“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.”
The Guardian’s results tracker has Labour on 326 seats so far: a majority.
