The internet erupted with reactions to Sunak’s defeat, with netizens expressing a range of responses and emotions.

That’s quite a humorous observation! It highlights the diverse trajectories family members can take in different political systems.
Let's hope he can reedem this tonight 🙏 #rishiout https://t.co/JIXKkbeU9Q

Rishi Sunak’s party faced a historic low, projected to secure only 131 seats in the latest elections. Voters seemed to punish them for a mix of issues, from a soaring cost-of-living crisis to years of internal turmoil and lingering Brexit divisions since 2016.
Meanwhile, the centrist Liberal Democrats were set to win 61 seats, showing a strong electoral presence. Nigel Farage’s right-wing populist Reform UK also made unexpected gains, projected to secure 13 seats.
Early results underscored a trend where Labour and the Liberal Democrats were gaining ground at the Conservatives’ expense. Reform UK celebrated its first electoral wins, often pushing the Conservatives into third place in several constituencies.
Regarding foreign policy, particularly Britain’s approach to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, Keir Starmer’s ascension is not expected to bring about significant shifts. He has affirmed his commitment to maintaining Britain’s supportive stance towards Kyiv.
Additionally, Starmer has called for a ceasefire in Gaza amidst the conflict between Israel and Hamas. He has also advocated for efforts to secure the release of Israeli hostages held by the militant group, as reported by CNN.
