PNN – The preliminary results of counting the votes of the British parliamentary elections in the early hours of Friday morning indicate the lead of the Labor Party led by “Keir Starmer” and the heavy defeat of the Conservative Party led by “Rishi Sonak”.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, based on the announced results, the Labor Party has won 53 seats more than the previous round and has won 136 seats, and the Conservative Party has won a total of 25 seats in the House of Commons after losing 63 seats. According to statistics, the Liberal Democrats and the right-wing Islah party have won 16 and 2 seats, respectively.
Minutes ago, it was announced that British Defense Minister Grant Shepps lost his parliamentary seat and could not enter the next parliament. According to forecasts, Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt and a number of other members of the British government may also lose their seats in the elections.
Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labor Party, after winning the Holborn and St. Pancras constituencies, said: Today, the people of this region and across the country announced that they are ready to change the country. They voted Labor and now we have a duty to deliver on our promises.

The evaluations carried out in the polling stations, the results of which were published immediately after the end of the voting process in England, show that the Labor Party will take over the overwhelming majority of seats in the parliament. The “Ipsos Murray” Institute has predicted that the Labor Party will win 410 seats and the Conservative Party will win 131 seats by asking voters when they leave the polling stations known as Exit Poll.
If the predictions are correct, the conservatives will experience their heaviest political defeat since the founding of this party in the 19th century, and the Labor Party will once again take the helm of the government after 14 years away from power.
But one of the surprising points in this election is the victory of Nigel Farage, the leader of the right-wing British Reform Party, in the Clecton constituency. After participating in national elections 8 times, he entered the House of Commons for the first time.
Farage is the one who paved the way for Brexit in the 2016 referendum on Britain’s exit from the European Union by arousing public opinion about the number of immigrants from war-torn countries.
This populist and right-wing element, who has returned to politics after a period of media activity, these days talks about his ambitions to seize power by 2029. British Prime Minister Rishi Sonak had previously warned about the consequences of voting for the Reform Party and the defeat of the Conservative Party in the elections.
The people of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland went to the polls to elect the representatives of the House of Commons and determine the future government of this country.
During this general election, which is the 59th British parliamentary election since 1801, the fate of 650 seats in the House of Commons will be determined by the people of this country.
