@TheNewsAgents @jonsopel @KarlTurnerMP @maitlis Can easily see why this prick has had the whip suspended

[Samantha Niblett MP @SamanthaNiblet4]

I saw the Prime Minister in Number 10 yesterday.

He was as gracious and kind as he always is as he addressed some of us to thank us for our support.

His focus is on helping whoever takes on the role from him. 1/2

[Callum Anderson MP @_CallumAnderson]

I’m deeply saddened by Keir Starmer's decision to step down as Prime Minister.

This moment should also prompt reflection. In an age of 24/7 media and social media, we too often judge leaders by daily headlines rather than long-term progress. We need a more resilient politics.

[Mark G #SayNoToReform @TheLabourMark]

I would like to see Darren Jones throw his hat into the ring. He’s a fantastic negotiator and not a back stabbing snake like Burnham. #Labour

[Peter Bleksley @PeterBleksley]

Daft, disloyal, feckless, failing, self-centered, self-absorbed, socialist, hopeless, @UKLabour MPs think that Burnham is the messiah. They could not be more wrong. They will be proven to be catstrophically mistaken. And meanwhile, the British people will suffer.

[JennyPence 🌹 @JennyEPence]

Many Labour Party members are devastated today.

Complete lack of self awareness from this egotistical charlatan.

[Philip Abrahams @pjmabrahams]

@KarlTurnerMP Unutterable crap

[Alan Lester @aljhlester]

Rarely has there been such a contrast between a PM’s performance and public perception of it. It tells you all you need to know about the polarising & pernicious influence of our media ecosystem, including even the BBC’s own TV News.

-Cut NHS waiting list by 490k
-550k children lifted out of poverty
-Net migration cut by 82%
-342k new homes built
-2,400 new police hired
-One of the fastest growing G7 economies

Mistakes were made, but whoever is the next PM has been left with a decent foundation.

[Philip Abrahams @pjmabrahams]

@benjaminbutter He’s an insufferable prick

[Bridget Phillipson @bphillipsonMP]

Keir Starmer has changed our party and our country for the better.

He brought Labour back from electoral oblivion, has restored our reputation abroad, stabilised the economy and will lift half a million children out of poverty.

We owe Keir a huge debt of gratitude.

[Philip Abrahams @pjmabrahams]

@CatherineWest1 You awful disingenuous woman

[Peter Kyle @peterkyle]

Keir earned my respect when I saw him fight to save Labour. He earned even more of it as Prime Minister, restoring Britain’s place in the world amid historically challenging circumstances.

For this, and for so much more, he will always have my gratitude and friendship.

[Steve Reed @SteveReedMP]

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.

[Andy @AndyRejoinEU]

Who made the right call on the Iraq war?

Andy Burnham voted for it.

Keir Starmer marched against it.

[TallyCat 🇬🇧 🐈‍⬛ *Never Burnham* @TallyCat8]

Fuck Burnham for absolutely ruining Labour's chance to givern for a full term.
Also to blame:
Lisa Nandy
Wes Streeting
Jess Philips
Al Carns
Louise Haigh
Josh Simons
Luke Charters
And many more selfish, uncaring unpatriotic bastards.

[Mike Tapp MP @MikeTappTweets]

I’m sorry. Today is a sad day.

Thank you Keir Starmer for your service.

I will continue to work hard to deliver for our great country in the Home Office.

My service in politics will always put country first, no exceptions, no wavering 🇬🇧.

[Kirsteen Sullivan MP @kittysull1]

I cannot disagree with anything @JohnSlinger says here, and others share our views.

No one should be led to believe that most Labour MPs want to oust a sitting Labour PM, they don’t. We want stability, delivery and focus on what we were elected to do.

[Darren Jones MP @darrenpjones]

I was proud to stand on Downing Street with the Prime Minister this morning.

And I’m proud of the Britain that this Labour government is working to deliver - a country where power, wealth and opportunity is shared amongst the many and not the few.

Keir Starmer brought our Labour Party back from the brink into government after 14 years in opposition.

He did so because the public trusted us on the economy and on national security, and because they voted for our manifesto.

My party mustn’t forget the lessons of our successive defeats, and must remember why and how we won only two years ago.

Whatever happens next, we can be grateful for Keir Starmer’s leadership and the work his government has done to put Britain back on a path to a brighter future.

We wish Keir and his family all the best for what comes next, and remain forever grateful for what he has done for my party and for our country.

Open statement to UK broadcasters and the press.
As a Labour member, I am deeply alarmed by the one-sided media coverage around our democratically elected Prime Minister , Keir Starmer.
You are becoming a democracy blocker by giving oxygen to anonymous briefings, factional pressure and anti-Starmer narratives while failing to fairly represent Labour members and MPs who support our Prime Minister.
