The Spin
Labour narrative
At long last, the prospect of change and an air of excitement has finally returned to British politics. Since 2010, the Conservatives have done their best to suck all life, energy, and positivity out of the country while crippling the economy along the way. Reminiscent of Blair's 1997 triumph — although it is imperative that Starmer and his centrist wing do not forget their party's roots — there is genuine hope that under new leadership, things can truly get better for the UK.
Tory narrative
While it may be the end for the Conservatives in government, it does not take a genius to see that Labour's support is born from apathy towards the current political establishment rather than love for Starmer and his party. Although there is no denying that parties and the economic disaster that was Liz Truss meant that Sunak always had a mountain to climb, and the public may be relieved to finally see the back of the Conservatives for now, it won't be long until Starmer's honeymoon bubble is abruptly burst.
