Keir Starmer's rival, Andy Burnham, has made significant progress towards ousting him as prime minister after winning the Makerfield by-election with a thumping majority.

It means the former mayor of Manchester can now launch a challenge for the leadership of the country.

He said the by-election result was a vote for change and "could be a turning point" in British politics.

Keir Starmer said he will stand in any leadership contest and fight for his job.
