Sir Keir Starmer: “Putin should roll back his tanks, end his barbaric strikes, and come to the negotiating table.”

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.

I’m proud to hand over the party in good shape to Andy Burnham, and hand over the country in good shape to Andy Burnham.

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.

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