London: Newly-elected UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said that Britain needed to rediscover its identity and undergo a wider reset.
“It is surely clear to everyone that our country needs a bigger reset, a rediscovery of who we are, because no matter how fierce the storms of history, one of the greatest strengths of this nation has always been our ability to navigate a way to calmer waters,” Starmer said in his first words outside his new office at 10 Downing Street.
“This depends upon politicians, particularly those who stand for stability and moderation, as I do.”
He added: “My government will fight every day until you believe again. From now on, you have a government unburdened by doctrine, guided only by the determination to serve your interest. To defy those quietly those who have written our country off.
“You have given us a clear mandate, And we will use it to deliver change.”
Greeted in Downing Street by a large crowd of cheering aides and supporters after formally accepting King Charles’s invitation to become prime minister, Starmer’s first address made the case for moderate politics to repair voters’ broken trust.
The Labour Party has secured a landslide victory in the 2024 general elections.
According to the results, Labour Party secured 410 seats while Conservative Party could grab only 119 seats.
