I go with good grace, I go with a smile, and I go proud of everything we have achieved.
I'm absolutely confident when I say our support will not waver. And we'll see that in the coming weeks.
In six years, we went from historic defeat in 2019 to historic victory in 2024, and in two years in government I leave the country in better shape than I found it.
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.
