Sir Keir Starmer: “I am determined that we do everything in our power to prevent other families from suffering such a devastating loss.”

I want to thank once again my family, Vic and our children, my team, all the staff here and across the Labour Party, everyone at Number 10 and across the civil service, and everyone who has supported our efforts along the way.

My work is done. In six-and-a-half years, I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019, changed it so it was fit to face the country, and won a landslide general election victory in 2024.

And so, under this attack, it is vital that we remember the greatness of the Britain all around us.

It's not just the size of your army, it's how you fight a modern conflict.
