Voters in Britain continue to head to the polls to cast their votes in the parliamentary elections. Predictions indicate that the Conservative Party is heading toward its worst defeat in history. Experts say the country may turn a historic page today, while the Labour Party from the center-left is expected to deliver a heavy blow to the Conservatives, who have been in power for fourteen years. The British are ready to give Labour leader Keir Starmer a chance. So, who is he?
- He is a British politician and lawyer born in 1962.
- He served as the shadow minister for Brexit and previously worked as the Director of Public Prosecutions.
- He held the position of Attorney General before being elected as an MP nine years ago.
- He is expected to become Prime Minister, as this position is usually held by the leader of the political party that secures the majority of seats in the legislative elections.
It seems that the British, who have undergone several turning points and experienced tough years recently, are now looking towards a single goal through this election: change.
