Congratulations to Keir Starmer on becoming the first British PM to be awarded the Légion d’honneur in recognition of his work on security in Europe.
He brought a seriousness back to British foreign policy that had been missing.
I feel as Carolyn Harris does. My God, @Keir_Starmer has handled this whole hideous travesty with superhuman integrity, humanity, decency & profound dignity. His wife Vic & his kids must be so proud of him. Plenty of us are too & grateful🙏 Don’t be a stranger Keir.❤️
Does anyone else get the feeling that Keir Starmer has been cut off in his prime?
There is so much good news in his last weeks in government.
Having to resign comes across as the Labour party on a suicide mission.
What have they done?
There are days when you most probably doubted yourself. .days when you questioned whether you was making a difference.
The kindness you showed to people and the light you carried leaves a greater impact than you'll ever realize.
Never underestimate the difference you made @Keir_Starmer simply by being you...from all your supporters.
Britain's broken political system needs fixing.
Proportional representation, real devolution, an elected second chamber and a written constitution would help deliver it.
If Andy Burnham is serious about changing politics, our door is open.
EXCL: Keir Starmer has become first UK PM to be presented with Légion d’honneur by French president, in recognition of his work on security of Europe.
Emmanuel Macron awarded the historic honour to Starmer for his l'ship in setting up coalition of the willing at a critical moment for the continent in early 2025.
Only other British PM to receive a similar award – at a higher level, the Grand-Croix of the Légion d’honneur – was Winston Churchill in 1958 in recognition of his leadership during the second world war.

It is important to have good people leading our country, in Keir Starmer that is what we have had. A man of integrity, and guts to do the right thing.
He leaves our country in a better place.
We must not continue this churn in PMs. Stability leads to delivery.
Sir Keir Starmer should be offered a role as a Special Envoy for European Security, in which he can continue his work on the Coalition of the Willing, build on his relationship with President Zelenksyy, and provide much-needed continuity for Britain's European partners.
Fair play you led to the Labour victory but have destroyed our country ever since...no aspirations in business, in young people and investing...largest ever debt and debt repayments...a happy day for most of the UK
How is @andyburnham going to cope with having to go abroad when he is determined to be focusing on bringing hope to postcodes? Perhaps he'll delegate this to the Foreign Secretary - one thing is certain, Sir Keir Starmer will be sorely missed on the world stage.
What a bloody marvellous Prime Minister we had, only to be kicked out by the disloyal bastards and the headless chickens on the @UKLabour benches - front and back.
Totally unnecessary.
No unity.
No loyalty.
No closing ranks.
#BollocksToBurnham and all those nasty little shites that hatched their odious coup for over a year or more, and implemented it without the affirmation of the rank and file of which I was one.
My membership is now cancelled.
I will NEVER rejoin the party again.
I have no faith any longer.
Are you listening @KarlTurnerMP?
I used to think you were a decent man.
Seems I was very wrong. Turns out you were a conniving little shite yourself.
This ain’t going to end well for @UKLabour. Not at all.
Already Burnham’s popularity is on the wain, his character irreparably damaged.
Nobody likes a fucking snake in the grass. No-one.
FYI @Keir_Starmer
Keir Starmer has become the first UK prime minister to be presented with the Légion d’honneur by a French president, in recognition of his work with France on the security of Europe.
This is something he ought and WE ought to feel extremely proud about
Well done @Keir_Starmer
Who needs America?
Andy bloody Burnham and bloody Mad Miliband…
Is this really the calibre of political puppets running our country?
Burnham, Rayner, Reeves, Miliband, Lammy, Streeting…
It’s no wonder we’re a global laughing stock with these uncharismatic, corrupt, jelly-brained Labour bigwigs in charge.
We urgently need a general election.
Odds on @BBCNews at 6 won’t even bother to mention this important meeting.
They consistently and deliberately ignore Keir Starmer’s significant role in international diplomacy.
@lisanandy should have been fired.

I’m really excited to see Sian Astley standing for Mayor of Greater Manchester. 🩵
She’s built a successful career outside politics, loves this city, and isn’t afraid to challenge the status quo.
🇬🇧 Greater Manchester first.
🚓 Safer streets.
💷 Better value for taxpayers.
📖 Open the books.
🩵🇬🇧 Manchester needs Reform!
If you’re not already following @SianReform give her a follow and support. 🕊️
