LONDON - Britain's opposition Labour Party has won 326 seats in the parliamentary election, broadcaster ITV said on Friday, meaning it now holds a majority in the 650-seat strong House of Commons.
"Change begins now," Labour leader Keir Starmer said in a speech after his party won the national election, ending 14 years of Conservative government.
"A mandate like this comes with a great responsibility," he told supporters at a triumphant dawn rally in London.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak conceded defeat in the polls.
"The Labour Party has won this general election and I have called Sir Keir Starmer to congratulate him on his victory," Sunak said after winning his parliamentary seat in northern England.
"Today, power will change hands in a peaceful and orderly manner, with goodwill on all sides. That is something that should give us all confidence in our country's stability and future."
