Keir Starmer called the result in the Blackpool South byelection 'truly historic' after the party's candidate, Chris Webb, won the seat with the third biggest swing from the Conservative to Labour in postwar history. Webb, a local and the firm favourite, won with 10,825 votes, followed by David Jones, the Conservative candidate, with a distant 3,218 votes, who finished narrowly ahead of the Reform candidate, Mark Butcher, on 3,101 votes. The Labour leader called out the prime minister, Rishi Sunak, to say the country is demanding change.
