Keir Starmer brought Labour back from the brink, won a landslide majority against all the odds, and is changing Britain for the better.
Thank you Keir, we are proud of you.
Keir Starmer’s place in history is assured. We owe Keir a debt of gratitude for taking Labour from its worst electoral defeat in 2019, bringing Labour back into government with a huge majority in 2024 and then guiding Britain through difficult times nationally and globally.
Andy Burnham does not have a mandate to govern Britain. Less than 25k votes in Makerfield is not a coronation.
Put it to the people.
General Election now.
Anyone else wondering if @AndyBurnhamGM has the capability for PM.
Surely @UKLabour will realise that @Keir_Starmer is far more qualified than the north Mayor
A democratically elected British Prime Minister has been driven from office by a relentless campaign of propaganda and misinformation; funded, amplified and perpetuated by foreign billionaires and elites whose interests bear zero resemblance to those of ordinary working people.
A noble gesture from an emotional Keir Starmer, entirely consistent with his conduct in office.
A truly sad day for British democracy.
His full resignation speech:
The state of the country today is far better than how @Keir_Starmer inherited it.
@Keir_Starmer needed time to make the differences he had the ambition for.
<2 years is not enough to untangle the poor state the @Conservatives left us in.
Where did all the money go Tories?
🚨 BREAKING: Following Keir Starmer’s resignation, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has demanded an immediate General Election.
Do you agree with this?
@KemiBadenoch@UKLabour want the country functional and fixed. Welfare is a big topic of debate and could throw many genuinely in need into difficulty.
@Conservatives failed to sort this out in 14 years…,
If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated.
On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades.
After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced.
We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...
