Keir Starmer, former British prime minister, announced he will leave Parliament. In a public statement, Starmer said "it is the right moment" to leave the legislative position, ending his career as a parliamentarian after several terms.
After leaving Parliament, Starmer intends to dedicate himself to international issues. The former Labour leader did not specify exactly what kind of international work he intends to pursue, but indicated that this is the direction he wants to follow after leaving British domestic politics.
The seat Starmer leaves vacant in the House of Commons will trigger a by-election. Predictions indicate that the contest for the seat will be between the Labour Party, to which Starmer always belonged, and the Green Party.
Starmer was prime minister of the United Kingdom until recently, having led the country during a period of significant political and economic challenges. His departure from Parliament marks the end of an era for the Labour Party and opens the way for a new political dynamic in his former constituency.
