London (TIP): The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson-led Conservative Party on May 7 suffered some key losses in the local elections after the Opposition Labour won some of the traditional Tory strongholds in London. Labour leader Sir KeirStarmer said the party had reached a “turning point” and was “back on track” to succeed at the next General Election after grabbing the councils of Westminster, Wandsworth and Barnet in London. The Tories had held the Westminster council in the heart of London since its creation in 1964 and Wandsworth in south London since 1978. “This is a big turning point. From the depths of the 2019 general election, we’re back on track. We’ve sent a message to the Prime Minister: Britain deserves better,” Starmer said, during a visit to Barnet on May 6. “We’ve had some difficult results and we can see that in London… but it does not demonstrate that Labour has the momentum to form the next government,” Conservative Party co-chair Oliver Dowden said. – PTI
