Keir Starmer: “We must all be free to debate openly and freely without fear”

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.

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

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.
