'The Labour Party has won this general election': Sunak concedes defeat
Wednesday, 3 July 2024 Rishi Sunak has conceded defeat in the general election - putting Sir Keir Starmer on course to enter Downing Street as the country's first Labour prime minister in 14 years.
Sir Keir Starmer has been elected the prime minister after achieving a landslide victory for the Labour Party at the general election. After a meeting with King Charles, the Labour leader gave his first speech as PM, promising to "restore service and respect" to politics with his government. Here are...
Keir Starmer’s government is facing strong criticism after agreeing to a deal that allows EU fishing vessels continued access to UK waters for 12 more years. Scottish fishermen and politicians have slammed the agreement as a betrayal, calling it a “horror show” that endangers local communities and the fishing industry. The Scottish Government and opposition parties accuse UK ministers of ignoring devolved consent and sacrificing fishermen’s interests for political gain. Critics warn the deal risks harming coastal economies and undermines post-Brexit sovereignty.

Marking 77 years since the Nakba, tens of thousands joined a massive pro-Palestine protest in London, organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign. The march, from Embankment to Downing Street, condemned the ongoing "ethnic cleansing" of Palestinians. It coincided with Israel’s intensified bombing of Gaza, killing over 150 in 24 hours. As ceasefire talks resumed in Doha, Israel threatened continued military operations unless progress was made. The symbolic protest amplified global calls for justice and peace as Israeli forces escalated operations and Hamas agreed to rejoin negotiations under mounting pressure.
