Labour party frontrunner Keir Starmer has finally become UK's new prime minister and he eyed forming a diverse government.

The newly elected Prime Minister aims to lead diverse parliament with notable presence of 15 British-Pakistani members and an increased representation of women and ethnic minorities.

Labour Party candidates including Afzal Khan, Imran Hussain, Naz Shah, Yasmin Qureshi, Muhammad Yasin, Tahir Ali, Shabana Mahmood, Zarah Sultana, Dr Zubir Ahmed, Naushabah Khan, and Dr Rosena Allin-Khan secured victories, alongside independent and Conservative candidates like Ayoub Khan, Adnan Hussain, Saqib Bhatti, and Nusrat Ghani.

This has resulted in a record level of ethnic minority representation in the House of Commons, now standing at 13%, up from 10% in 2019, although still not fully reflective of the population's diversity. The incoming Parliament will also include a record 242 female lawmakers, marking a significant increase since 2019.
