Starmer Reveals Reason Behind Resignation and Teases New Role
A by-election will now take place to replace Starmer as MP, with details to be finalized on the contenders and exact date.
Shortly after the news broke, Starmer shared a statement via social media, further explaining the reasons behind his departure.
You can read his words in full, below:
“Over the summer, I have had time to reflect and consider my future. I have decided that now is the right time to step down as MP for Holborn and St Pancras and hand the baton over to a successor.
It’s been an honor and privilege to represent the best constituency in the country since taking over from the great Frank Dobson 11 years ago. But it is now time to step aside and focus on other issues: international affairs including defense, security, trade and technology in a fast changing world. I will also continue working with others as I have done over many decades to tackle violence against women and girls.
