Starmer: By-elections show voters are crying out for change'
Sir Keir Starmer says Labour's double by-election victories in Wellingborough and Kingswood proves voters are "crying out for change across the country".
Labour overturned majorities of 11,220 and 18,540, securing its second largest swing from the Conservatives ever.
But the Labour leader adds that there is no room for complacency, adding, "there's more work to be done and a long, long way to go".
