Starmer Steps Down, Sets Labour Up | London News

Keir Starmer is stepping down as Labour leader, confident the party’s in strong shape for the next election — especially if Andy Burnham takes over. He’s proud of his record: winning the last election, slashing child poverty, improving NHS waits, and stabilizing the economy — all while rebuilding trust on defense and immigration after Labour’s rocky 2019 showing. Starmer insists there’s no rivalry with Burnham, even joking about his football team, and vows to support his successor — but only if asked. He’ll stay in Parliament until the next election and shut down rumors of a NATO role. He also warns Burnham that global affairs can’t be separated from domestic policy — a crucial lesson for the next prime minister. His decision was deeply personal, made during a family weekend at Chequers — and he’s leaving Labour poised for victory, ready for the next leader to build on his legacy.
