British PM Keir Starmer congratulates Arsenal amid night-long title celebrations
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has taken time out from dealing with his own sticky political situation to congratulate his favorite soccer team Arsenal on winning the Premier League.
Starmer posted on X soon after the title was clinched: “22 long years for the Arsenal.
But finally, we’re back where we belong.
Champions!” Starmer is a lifelong Arsenal fan.
The victory was rare good news at a time when he is clinging to power after woeful results for his Labour Party in local and regional elections on May 7.
The new champions celebrated into the night, with midfielder Eberechi Eze posting pictures on his Instagram account up to 5 a.m. local time.
