The UK's Conservative Party is facing significant losses in the recent election, with exit polls predicting a Labour Party landslide victory. The Labour Party, led by Sakir Starmer, is expected to secure 410 seats, while the Conservatives may only win 131. This marks a major political shift after 14 years of Conservative rule. Many voters reportedly voted against the Conservatives rather than for another party. If confirmed, Starmer will become Prime Minister and attend a NATO summit in Washington, DC, shortly after taking office. The election results could have significant implications for UK-US relations.
