00:00On the morning of the Labor Party's landslide UK general election win, party leader and

00:08new Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said, change begins now.

00:14But what does this mean?

00:16And what is the expected timeline for a government that's waited 14 years to set the political

00:22agenda?

00:24After the 61-year-old former barrister and director of public prosecutions was formally

00:30appointed Prime Minister by King Charles III, Starmer said, my government will serve you.

00:38He told reporters outside 10 Downing Street his ambitions for the next five years would

00:43focus on putting the country first, party second.

00:49Changing a country is not like flicking a switch.

00:52The world is now a more volatile place.

00:55This will take a while.

00:58But have no doubt that the work of change begins immediately.

01:04The Labor Manifesto, a document outlining the party's political priorities, lists five

01:10goals for the next half decade.

01:14It includes kick-starting economic growth, reducing violent crime, and improving and

01:19investing in the ailing National Health Service.

01:24Despite the optimism, Starmer and his party face an uphill battle, both at home and abroad,

01:31and will need to mitigate a cost-of-living crisis, global conflicts and climate change.
