Keir Starmer has officially stepped down from his role as Prime Minister this week, sparking a wave of reactions from Mirror readers. The 63-year-old Labour leader recently met with Andy Burnham, marking their first in-person meeting since Starmer’s resignation and Burnham’s victory in the Makersfield by-election.

Burnham, the former mayor of Greater Manchester for nine years, is now seen as a strong contender to take over leadership. The 56-year-old has launched his leadership campaign and garnered support from figures like Wes Streeting.

Mirror readers have been actively sharing their opinions on these events and are encouraged to continue doing so through the site and letters to the editor. Additionally, a fiery exchange took place during today’s Prime Minister’s Questions as Kemi Badenoch did not hold back in her criticism of Starmer. Badenoch clashed with several Labour members, including Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson, whom she referred to as a “spiteful class warrior.”

Following the tense interaction, Phillipson and DWP Secretary Liz Kendall confronted Badenoch, leading to further heated exchanges. Badenoch reportedly made pointed remarks to Phillipson, emphasizing her perceived spiteful behavior, while Phillipson vowed that the public would soon see the truth about Badenoch.

The opposition leader delivered a cutting remark about Burnham, dismissing him as “a pair of eyelashes and a black T-shirt,” as she criticized Labour MPs for failing the Prime Minister.
