Keir Starmer: “This is not something I do lightly, and I will not present it as cost-free, as if social media has brought no benefits…”

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

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.

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.
