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.
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.

I go with good grace, I go with a smile, and I go proud of everything we have achieved.
