Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has conceded defeat in the general election, telling people at the count in his seat: “I am sorry.”
“The Labour Party has won this general election,” Sunak said, adding that he has called Keir Starmer to congratulate him and concede the election, according to CNN.
“Today power will change hands in an orderly and peaceful manner. The British people have delivered a sobering verdict tonight. There is much to learn and reflect on, and I take responsibility for the loss,” he said.
According to the exit poll, after 14 years of Conservatives’ rule, the Labor Party won the early elections. Labor party will take up 410 seats in the 650-member House of Commons, and their leader, Keir Starmer, will become the country’s prime minister
