UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced he will resign as prime minister and leader of the Labour Party.
In a statement outside 10 Downing Street, he said every decision he has made in office has been about “putting the country I love first”.
Starmer thanked his “fantastic wife, Vic”, describing her as a “rock”. He also says he wants to be the “best dad I can to my beautiful children, who are my pride and joy”.
He further said he will do everything he can to ensure an orderly handover of power and will give his successor his full support.
Andy Burnham, who could replace the PM, will be sworn in as MP for Makerfield, after winning the by-election last week
