LONDON, July 20, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Keir Starmer left Downing Street Monday, 
saying he was leaving Britain "stronger and fairer" as he stepped down as PM 
to make way for Andy Burnham.

"I am confident that Britain is now stronger and fairer than it was two years 
ago," Starmer told reporters in his farewell speech outside his No. 10 office 
in central London.

"I go with good grace, I go with a smile, and I go proud of everything that 
we have achieved," he added, before heading to Buckingham Palace to offer his 
resignation to King Charles III.
