People react as exit polls for the UK general election are projected onto the BBC's London headquarters, with the figures predicting a landslide victory for the opposition Labour Party. Those gathered in the British capital cheer when projected Labour seat tally (410) is revealed and boo when the Reform UK tally (13) is shown. With the Conservatives predicted to win just 131 seats, the party could be on track for its worst defeat since the beginning of the 20th century. IMAGES
Exit poll results projected on the exterior of the BBC's Broadcasting House show Keir Starmer's opposition Labour party on course for a landslide win in Britain's general election. The polls, announced by several UK broadcasters, signal the end of 14 years of Conservative rule, suggesting Labour would win 410 seats in the 650-seat parliament, with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's ruling Tories trailing on 131. The result would be the Conservatives' worst defeat since the beginning of the 20th century. IMAGES
Supporters of Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis' New Democracy party blare air horns at the party's main electoral kiosk in Athens as exit polls show the party to be on course to win Sunday's election. His New Democracy party is projected to have obtained 36 to 40 percent of the votes -- well ahead of leftist challenger Alexis Tsipras' Syriza party, which is expected to have secured 25 to 29 percent of the ballot - but could be forced to call a second round of votes as it failed to garner enough support to rule alone.
