Labour Wins UK By-Election As Tory PM Sunak Stares At More Losses

Britain’s main opposition Labour Party leader Keir Starmer , flanked by New Labour Party MP for Blackpool South, Chris Webb and Britain’s main opposition Labour Party deputy leader and Shadow Levelling Up, Housing and Communities Secretary Angela Rayner , delivers a celebrating speech at Blackpool Cricket Club, following the results of the by-elections in Blackpool, north-west England, on May 3, 2024.

“This seismic win in Blackpool South is the most important result today,” said Labour leader Keir Starmer, tipped to be Britain’s next prime minister.The polls represent the last major ballot box test before Sunak goes to the country in a nationwide vote expected in the second half of the year. The capital’s Labour mayor Sadiq Khan is expected to win a record third term easily, but mayoral contests in the West Midlands and Tees Valley, in northeast England, are predicted to be tight.A victory for the Labour opposition in either of the regions, home to bellwether constituencies, would be hailed as further evidence voters are ready to return the party to power nationally.
