The UK elections have resulted in a significant landslide victory for the Labour Party, marking the end of a 14-year Conservative rule. The aftermath of this political shake-up is being felt worldwide.

As Labour wins 395 seats, surpassing the required 326, the Conservative Party retains a diminished 105 seats, leading to a probable two-term Labour government.

Former foreign minister Alexander Downer discusses the implications of this significant political shift.
