My work is done. In six-and-a-half years, I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019, changed it so it was fit to face the country, and won a landslide general election victory in 2024.
And so, under this attack, it is vital that we remember the greatness of the Britain all around us.
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.
It's work I started before I became an MP and it's work I'm keen to continue after I'm an MP.
