Election 2024: ‘Britain can be better than this – vote for change, vote for Labour’
You have the chance to vote for hope. You have the chance to vote for a better future. Only Labour is offering the country a way forward. Only Labour can fix our public services, usher in a new age of prosperity and restore this nation’s pride.
The alternative does not bear thinking about. The country could not withstand another five years of Conservative rule. A party which has done so much damage in the last 14 years would visit only more ruination, scandal, division and poverty on the United Kingdom.
At this election, the Tories will be judged on their actions and they will be found unanimously guilty.
Keir Starmer tells voters ‘today we can begin a new chapter’
Keir Starmer has declared that Britain can “begin a new chapter” if the country votes Labour today.
The party is on the brink of a historic General Election victory, which would mark one of the most sensational political comebacks ever. The country has the chance to boot out the Tories after 14 years of misery. Polling stations are open from 7am to 10pm.
In an election day message to the nation, Mr Starmer said: “Britain’s future is on the ballot. Today, vote to turn the page on the last 14 years.” Appealing to people to put their trust in him, he urged: “Vote for a changed Labour Party that is now ready to serve and change Britain.”
General Election 2024 LIVE: Polls open across UK as Brits take to the ballot box for historic vote
The polls have officially opened for the General Election 2024 as Brits head to the ballot boxes after 14 years of Tory rule.
Polling stations opened at 7am and will close at 10pm tonight. If you are in the queue outside your polling station at 10pm you will still be allowed to vote, but if you arrive after 10pm you will not be able to cast a ballot.
For the first time, voters also risk being turned away from polling stations unless they arrive with a key item. Following a change in the law, those who cast their ballot in person must bring valid photo ID. Make sure to check which type of ID is valid before setting out to vote as some are not accepted.
