Keir Starmer: “Half a million children being lifted out of poverty because of the choices that I made”

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

Our public services are on the up, with the biggest fall in waiting times for 17 years. Children are being lifted out of poverty every single day.

I am about to visit His Majesty the King to offer my resignation and close the book on my time as Prime Minister. My work is done.

I will now focus on other things and that will be international affairs including defence, security, trade and technology in a fast-changing world.
