Starmer warns his successor, Andy Burnum: He will face global conflicts

Starmer told the BBC: "Whoever succeeds me will face the same global struggles… We live in a world that is more dangerous and more volatile than it has probably been for most of my life… That is the reality." Bornem’s supporters call for him to focus on domestic issues, such as the cost of living crisis, while the would-be prime minister asserts that decentralization of governance will be one of his priorities. When asked whether his successor would be able to reduce the time he devotes to diplomacy, Starmer answered in the negative. And he said: "What is the right balance between dealing with international affairs and domestic affairs? In fact, they are the same thing" He added: "If you’re prime minister and you care about the bills that families are paying across the country, then you should care about finding a lasting solution to the situation in Ukraine, and you should care about what’s happening in the Strait of Hormuz.". Starmer confirmed that "He has no personal animosity" towards Bornem, and that he will do everything in his power to ensure the success of the next government.
