Statement from Adrian Ramsay on the resignation of Keir Starmer.

Statment from Adrian Ramsay Green MP for Waveney Valley

Adrian said:

 "Today's resignation was the right decision. I wish Keir Starmer well but, since the start of this year, it has become increasingly clear that the Prime Minister's position has been unsustainable, from the revelations around the Mandelson appointment to making repeated bad policy decisions.

We have now seen six Prime Ministers resign in ten years. This merry-go-round is not good for the nation. It destabilises the country and, crucially, it means the big issues are not tackled. No tangible progress on climate and nature, no long term plan for the NHS and social care, the cost of living crisis not under control. The public deserves better. 

The next Prime Minister, whoever they are, must provide stability and tackle the biggest issues facing the country."
