Summary
Sir Keir Starmer is stepping down as UK Prime Minister, paving the way for a swift leadership transition by mid-to-late August ahead of Parliament’s return in September. Reflecting on his tenure, he called it his proudest moment — transforming a struggling Labour Party, tackling antisemitism, and rebuilding trust — while acknowledging he heard from his party that he wasn’t the right choice to lead into the next election. Now focused on family and thanking his Number 10 team, Starmer has set the stage for Labour to pick its next leader with stability and speed in mind.
