Keir Starmer and wife enter No 10 for first time after Labour election win

Watch the moment Sir Keir Starmer entered 10 Downing Street for the first time as prime minister, alongside his wife Victoria.

Labour won a landslide in Thursday’s general election, which saw former premier Liz Truss and a dozen Tory cabinet members lose their seats.

Sir Keir became the new PM after meeting King Charles at Buckingham Palace, following the resignation of Rishi Sunak.

In his first speech as PM, Sir Keir promised a government “unburdened by doctrine” and to fight for people’s belief in a brighter future.
