Outgoing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer backed England ahead of their FIFA World Cup semi-final against Argentina during his final Prime Minister’s Questions. Addressing Parliament, Starmer said he had an “important” appointment with the television later in the day, referring to the high-stakes clash. He added that he was unconcerned about the margin of victory, joking that “I don’t care about the score as long as we win.” The light-hearted remark came during his final appearance at Prime Minister’s Questions before leaving office. England face Lionel Messi’s Argentina for a place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final, with Starmer publicly expressing his support for the Three Lions before kickoff.
