Rishi Sunak Urges “Decency & Tolerance” In Final Downing Street Address; New Prime Minister Keir Starmer Heading To Meet King Charles III


General Election: Rishi Sunak has resigned and Keir Starmer is heading to Buckingham Palace to meet King Charles III.

Rishi Sunak has handed over the keys to 10 Downing Street, departing with a call for “decency and tolerance” in British politics along with well wishes to new Prime Minister Keir Starmer. After an incredible night for Labour, Starmer, who earlier said “change begins now” to a big group of well-wishers, will now head to Buckingham Palace to see King Charles III, where he will be officially appointed. Nigel Farage’s Reform UK made a huge dent in the Conservative vote, winning 4 million although just four seats – disappointing given that it was projected 13 by the exit poll.
