Sir Keir Starmer: “We’ve got our mojo back as a country.”

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

I thank the British people for the opportunity to serve. I go with good grace. I go with a smile, and I go proud of everything that we have achieved.

Yet the thing I will always take away with me – the most humbling aspect of this job – is the front-row seat you get to witness the greatest things of this country in action.

So, as I now pass the baton to Andy Burnham, I wish him every success. He has my full support.
