The Shadow Brexit Secretary won convincingly against his rivals Rebecca Long-Bailey and Lisa Nandy.The announcement was made remotely due to the ongoing coronavirus lockdown.Visit Business Insider's homepage for more storiesKeir Starmer has won the Labour leadership contest and will replace Jeremy Corbyn as the leader of the Labour Party.

"It is the honour and the privilege of my life to be elected as leader of the Labour Party," Starmer said in a statement."This is my pledge to the British people. I will do my utmost to guide us through these difficult times, to serve all of our communities and to strive for the good of our country."

A fervent pro-European and former top lawyer, Starmer is known for his steady manner and forensic House of Commons performances. In 2008 he became one of the country's most senior legal figures, when he was appointed Director of Public Prosecutions and Head of the Crown Prosecution Service.Corbyn made Starmer his shadow immigration minister in 2015, a role which he quit in protest against his predecessor's leadership.

Britain's main opposition Labour Party Shadow Brexit secretary Keir Starmer, 2nd left, is greeted by pro-immigration protesters ahead of a meeting to finalise the manifesto details that will form Labour Party policy for the upcoming General Election in London, Saturday Nov. 16, 2019. Britain's Brexit is one of the main issues for voters and political parties as the UK goes to the polls in a General Election on Dec. 12.

A Labour MP who supported Starmer's campaign said: "The government is gonna have to extend — it's just a matter of when. It won't require much pushing on Keir's behalf for that to happen." Starmer inherits a party which hasn't won a general election in a decade. It was comfortably defeated by Johnson's Conservatives at the December election, surrendering swathes of seats it had controlled for decades.

Ewww gross!!!..He should win award for the yellowest, nasty teeth.

With Corbyn sitting nearby good luck with that!

Uniting the party would be a good start.

Thank God
