And so, under this attack, it is vital that we remember the greatness of the Britain all around us.
I want to thank once again my family, Vic and our children, my team, all the staff here and across the Labour Party, everyone at Number 10 and across the civil service, and everyone who has supported our efforts along the way.
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.
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.
