Keir Starmer announces he is standing down as MP
Tuesday September 1, 2026 (10:26 am EDT)
Keir Starmer will stand down as a member of parliament, he said on Tuesday, some six weeks after he resigned as Britain's prime minister having lost the support of his Labour Party. Starmer guided Labour into power in 2024 with one of the biggest parliamentary majorities in Britain's modern history, completing a remarkable turnaround having become Labour leader four years earlier after its worst election showing since 1935. This is an early electoral test for new PM Andy Burnham. Starmer won the seat in 2024 by 11,572 votes, so Labour starts as the favorite, but the margin isn't so enormous that the contest is meaningless. Green Party leader Zack Polanski is considering running himself, while independent Andrew Feinstein—who performed strongly against Starmer in 2024—could also contest it. Multiple left-of-centre candidates could split the anti-Labour/alternative-left vote. Burnham probably benefits most from Starmer leaving Westminster. Monitor the latest odds.
