Peter Anderson: UK Correspondent on Labour's landslide victory in the UK election

View descriptionShare

The UK Labour Party has won county's election in a commanding fashion. 

The tally of Sir Keir Starmer's party's seats has now topped 360 seats —it needed 326 for a majority— and he will become Prime Minister. 

Starmer says they're here to return Britain to the service of working people. 

UK Correspondent Peter Anderson told Heather du Plessis-Allan that they’re expecting, based on figures so far, for Labour to end up with about 410 seats in the 650 seat Parliament, giving them a majority of 170 seats. 

In comparison, he said, the Conservatives are looking to have shed more than 200 seats, and will likely have a rather lowly 140/150 MPs at most.
