British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's brother, Nick, who faced learning difficulties due to birth complications, has passed away after a battle with cancer. The Prime Minister expressed his gratitude for the care Nick received and requested privacy for his family during this time.
British prime minister Keir Starmer said his brother Nick 'met all the challenges life threw at him with courage and good humour'. He died peacefully on St Stephen’s Day, after battling with cancer, a spokesman said. The prime minister had been due to go on holiday with his family on Friday, but it is understood that he will now remain at home but hopes to join them later. ‘I’ll never forget the trail of bodies’: Magdeburg witnesses recount Christmas market attack ‘We need Macron to act.
’ The view in Mayotte, the French island territory steamrolled by cyclone Chido Gisèle Pelicot has rewritten her story – and electrified women all over the world. But what about men? A spokesman for the prime minister added: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Nick Starmer. “We ask for privacy for Nick’s wider family at this time.” MPs including Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch offered their condolences to the prime minister following the announcement of his brother’s death. Mr Starmer spoke candidly about his brother – who had learning difficulties due to complications at birth – in Tom Baldwin’s biography. “We were a family of six, so it didn’t feel lonely and I shared a room with him, but Nick didn’t have many friends and got called ‘thick’ or ‘stupid’ by other kids,” Mr Starmer said of his brother.
