The United Kingdom, the United States stand together today as first partners on defense, first partners in trade, with the groundbreaking deal we struck in May, and now with a new agreement that we’ve just signed this afternoon, we’re confirming our status as the first partners in science and technology ready to define this century together, just as we did the last.
Starmer emphasizes the strong partnership between the U.K. and U.S. during a press conference.

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.
Since then, it has been the privilege of my life to serve you and this great country as Prime Minister, and I am confident that Britain is now stronger and fairer than it was two years ago.
Immigration is down significantly. Our defence and security are on a far stronger footing and our international reputation is greatly enhanced.
I think once you’ve been prime minister, it’s important to answer the question: what are you going to do next? Having decided I’m going to concentrate on international affairs, I think it’s right to step down.
