Sir Keir Starmer: “Being the best husband I can to my fantastic wife, Vic, who has been a rock by my side through good times and bad.”

I’m about to visit His Majesty the King to offer my resignation and close the book on my time as prime minister.

For all the focus on individuals, politics will always be a team sport, and the changes we’ve delivered for our country and our party belong to everyone who has fought for them.

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.

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.
