When it comes to who will likely take over the leadership, it's looking likely that the role will go to Andy Burnham, who was sworn into Parliament as an MP hours after Starmer announced his resignation.
He has already signalled he intends to throw his hat in the ring, fresh off winning the Makerfield by-election.
Anthony Albanese is among those responding to the news of Starmer's resignation, issuing a statement overnight saying, quote, I consider Keir Starmer a friend and I'm thinking of him on what must be a very tough day.
