Former Prime Minister Keir Starmer has made a surprising exit from Downing Street with a Fast & Furious-themed video on TikTok.

It also included lighter instances, like him participating in a viral TikTok dance with primary school children, known as the 'six-seven'. Foreign visits and interactions with NHS staff were also featured.
Released after his departure to make way for Andy Burnham, the video was captioned "it's been a privilege to serve." By Wednesday morning, it had achieved over 650,000 likes and 330,000 shares on TikTok, indicating a strong public reception.
