British Labor Party center-left government Foreign Minister descended from slavery, Deputy Prime Minister former union member

The British Labor Party came to power as a center-left party, overturning traditional politics and transforming itself into a government with a foreign minister descended from slaves and a female deputy prime minister from a union with no academic background.
As a result of the election, the British Labor Party won more than 410 seats, an increase of 211 from three years ago, when it seemed impossible to make a comeback, and the British Conservative Party, which was revered as the most successful political party in the Western world, lost 250 members in record numbers, including high-ranking ministers and former Prime Minister Liz Truss. lost.
Keir Starmer, the new prime minister and leader of the Labor Party, said: “Any improvement will take time and you will first have to rebuild your faith in politics. Whether you voted Labor or not, in fact, especially if you did not vote Labor, “I tell you directly, our government will serve you and we will show you that politics can be a force for good.”
The New York Times said: “The election victory marks a surprising turnaround for Starmer and the Labor Party, which critics and supporters say just three years ago was facing an existential crisis when the party appeared to have lost its way after its crushing 2019 general election defeat. “He said on the 5th.
The center-left government's first foreign minister was David Lammy, the son of Guyanese immigrants who grew up in poverty in the working class.
In an earlier interview with the New York Times, he said, "If I had the privilege of becoming foreign secretary, I would be very conscious that I would be the first foreign secretary who is a descendant of slaves."
Raynor (44), Deputy Prime Minister and Deputy Leader of the Labor Party, who became Minister of Housing and Communities, was evaluated by the New York Times as “a female lawmaker with a warm and direct manner and a brutally honest and direct tone” that was crucial to ending 14 years of Conservative rule.
“She is seen as one of Labour’s strongest electoral assets in reaching out to ordinary voters when she was in parliament,” said political analysts, adding that she “could give the new prime minister, Keir Starmer, a public reach that he might otherwise find difficult to connect with.” “I believe it is appealing to some,” she said, heralding the birth of the most powerful female politician.
“She can speak to a wide range of voters, including working-class voters who may not be associated with the Starmer project,” said Liz Butler, professor of modern history at University College London. “She has appeal. She speaks clearly, “Sometimes I speak very frankly,” he told the NYT.
In her victory speech on the 5th, Rep. Rayner paid tribute to "the working class people who are the foundation of this country," and said, "There is no greater honor than to serve you."
She left school at 16 when she became pregnant and later became a union representative at an aged care workplace. She entered politics solely through the trade union movement, and after first getting promoted through the union she became the first woman in her constituency. was elected as a member of the National Assembly.
She was elected deputy leader of the Labor Party in 2020, and despite serious initial conflict with Labor leader Starmer, she thrived in his revamped, more centre-left Labor party and won this election by a landslide, speaking directly to the public.
