Keir Starmer: “Putin is killing children and civilians, and sabotaging hopes of peace. This bloodshed must end.”

It has been a huge honour and privilege to represent the best constituency in the country and to have taken over from Frank Dobson, who was such a great constituency MP and a member of the last Labour government.

It’s work I started before I became an MP and it’s work I’m keen to continue after I’m an MP.

I will be cheering on Andy Burnham from the sidelines.

They have been resolute in their support for me, firstly in becoming an MP and then becoming the leader of Labour party and then as prime minister.
