Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has paid tribute to his brother Nick, who died of cancer on Boxing Day at the age of 60.

“My brother Nick was a wonderful man,” Starmer said in a statement.

“He met all the challenges life threw at him with courage and good humour. We will miss him very much.”

It is understood Starmer had been planning to go on holiday but will now stay behind.

“I would like to thank all those who treated and took care of Nick,” Starmer added.

“Their skill and compassion is very much appreciated.”
