Keir Starmer: “It’s not about them. It’s about millions of working people they will never meet.”

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

Immigration is down significantly. Our defence and security are on a far stronger footing and our international reputation is greatly enhanced.

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.

I will also continue, as I have done for a long time now with others, to work on combating violence against women and girls; that is an issue that matters to me hugely.
