Newspapers published revised front pages on Friday as Labour secured the number of seats to form the next Government.
The i runs with the same headline about a “Labour landslide” as its earlier edition with a few updates saying Sir Keir Starmer and Labour have been named as the winners of 2024’s General Election.
A fresh front for the UK edition of the Financial Times also described Labour’s win as a “landslide”.
The new front page for The Times features Sir Keir’s victory speech, in which the victorious Labour leader tells his supporters and the country: “You have voted; it is time for us to deliver.”
The Sun’s 4am edition declares Sir Keir as the “winner by smiles” with the paper running with a full-page image of the next prime minister and his wife, Victoria.
The Daily Express focuses on the Conservatives as outgoing ministers were beaten in a “devastating election bloodbath”.
The earlier release of newspaper front pages from The Independent, the Daily Mail, and The Daily Telegraph are still emblazoned with two words: “Labour landslide.”
The front page of The Guardian focuses on the exit poll which had Labour on course for victory.
The Daily Mirror looks beyond what has been an intense election night for all, shifting focus to the Labour government of tomorrow with: “Keir we go.”
The Metro used a pun to report on the result, dubbing the Labour leader “Keir Stormer”, describing how he stormed to crisis the finish line to become Prime Minister.
Lastly, the Daily Star has dedicated its front page to recounting its favourite moments from the last 14 years of a Conservative government.
