Sir Keir Starmer held a victory rally in central London after Rishi Sunak conceded defeat in the general election.
The Labour leader told Labour activists: “We did it. You campaigned for it, you fought for it, you voted for it and now it has arrived: Change begins now.
“And it feels good, I have to be honest.”
Labour has now officially won the election, having secured 330 seats - a majority in the House of Commons - with 475 out of 650 seats now having declared.
Sir Keir said: “Across our country people will be waking up to the news, relieved that a weight has been lifted, a burden finally removed from the shoulders of this great nation.
“And now we can look forward again, walk into the morning, the sunlight of hope, pale at first but getting stronger through the day, shining once again on a country with the opportunity after 14 years to get its future back.”
