00:00Following the period of nominations by Labour MPs, one candidate received 379 nominations.
00:07Having met the threshold of 20% of the parliamentary Labour Party, they were eligible to proceed to the next
00:14stage.
00:15One other candidate received one nomination and is not eligible to proceed.
00:19Among the affiliated trade unions and social societies, the one eligible candidate received 23 nominations in total.
00:26This included nominations from all 11 trade unions comprising well over 5% of the affiliated membership.
00:35There being no other eligibly nominated candidate, it is therefore my honour to declare that the duly elected leader of
00:44the Labour Party is Andy Burnham.
