“Country First, Party Second”: Keir Starmer In First Speech As UK PM

Must read

Keir Starmer on Friday promised that his Labour government will work from day one on national renewal, in his first speech as UK prime minister from Downing Street.

“The work of change begins immediately. But have no doubt, we will rebuild Britain,” he said, after Labour ended 14 years of Conservative rule in a landslide election win.

“Country first, party second. That’s how we will serve,” said Starmer.

Keir Starmer, the 61-year-old leader of the Labour Party, is the third prime minister in two years after Charles tasked him with forming a new government during a meeting at Buckingham Palace.
