The Labour party secured a landslide victory on Friday in UK’s general elections, with its leader Keir Starmer as the new prime minister. Amid this, an image depicting the new UK PM donning a pink hijab is making rounds on the Internet. The Image has invited humorous reactions on social media platforms. Users are fiercely sharing this video with captions like “This is the new PM of UK and meet the New PM”

Sharing this image on X, a user named Liz Churchill wrote: “U.K.‘s new Prime Minister and WEF Member Keir Starmer. Lol”

In addition, several users shared this image on X with similar captions.

Fact-Check

If Britain’s new PM wore a pink hijab, it would definitely make headlines in the mainstream media.
The DFRAC team initiated the investigation by closely observing the viral image and found a discrepancy in the hand of a lady shown on left side of the image.

For further investigation, we examined this image using AI image detectors, such as “AI or not & Is it AI?“. Both detectors confirmed it as AI-generated.

Conclusion

It is evident from DFRAC’s Fact-Check that the viral image of the UK PM donning a pink hijab was created using artificial intelligence (AI) technology, not the real one.
