Inside Keir Starmer's first meeting with the Labour Cabinet

The Red revolution began with coffee and congratulations today as Keir Starmer gathered his new Cabinet.

Sir Keir and his jubilant senior ministers met in Downing Street for the first time after his dramatic landslide triumph, saying it had been the 'honour and privilege of my life' to be asked to form a government.

Flanked by deputy PM Angela Rayner, Sir Keir warned his team they have a 'huge amount of work to do'.

Sir Keir is holding a press conference around lunchtime, although he is expected to take time to watch the England match later.

The premier appointed the Cabinet last night after the extraordinary scale of his victory - achieved despite Labour receiving fewer votes than under Jeremy Corbyn in 2017 - became clear.
