Sir Keir Starmer has formally resigned as the United Kingdom’s prime minister, saying “my work is done” as he handed over power to his successor, Andy Burnham, after two years in office.
In his farewell address outside 10 Downing Street on Monday, Starmer reflected on his time in office and expressed pride in his government’s record.
“I go with good grace, I go with a smile and I go proud of everything that we have achieved,” he said.
The outgoing prime minister also pledged his support for Burnham as he prepared to assume office.
