Sir Keir Starmer has sidestepped a direct answer on whether he’ll lead Labour into the next General Election, sparking fresh speculation about his long-term intentions. During a visit to Albania, the Prime Minister was asked about his plans and whether he’d be running to stay in No. 10, but he didn’t exactly give a clear “yes”.
“You’re getting way ahead of me,” he told GB News. Instead, Starmer focused on the here and now, saying: “I’m absolutely clear that my task is to rebuild our country… You’ve seen it over the last few days – trade deals with India, with the US, hopefully a trading relationship with the EU, very strong growth figures today reflecting the decisions that we’ve made.”
