Keir Starmer stood up for his last Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday, told the Commons this was "the end of my political journey," and got a standing ovation before he hands Britain to Andy Burnham on Monday. A government ending. A seventh prime minister in a decade incoming. Big day. * The Daily Mail found its story: "Tears for Keir! Reeves weeps and Labour MPs give a standing ovation at Starmer's last PMQs" — illustrated with three separate photographs of Rachel Reeves mid-cry. Three. One picture of the Chancellor's face was apparently not sufficient documentation of the fall of a government. * The Sun got there with one word doing all the work: "Rachel Reeves in tears AGAIN." Again! Because the tabloids now maintain a running Reeves-tears file — the previous installment, in July 2025, was such an event that the bond market moved while she cried. Her face is a recurring segment now, like the weather. * Here's what was actually available to cover in that room: a prime minister who announced his resignation after months of scandals and U-turns, defending his record one final time, while MPs broke Commons convention to applaud him out. Real questions everywhere. What did five years of Starmer amount to? What exactly is Burnham inheriting? Why did it end like this? * Euronews — running what is essentially straight wire copy — managed to answer like a grown-up: "Keir Starmer bids UK MPs 'goodbye', vows to support Burnham." The handover, the successor, the timetable. See? It can be done. It's allowed. * And look, a senior politician crying in the chamber is a legitimate photo. Once. It's the arithmetic that gives the game away: one government's end, one man's exit speech, three pictures of one woman's tears — plus an AGAIN, the entire history of tabloid feeling about Rachel Reeves compressed into six letters and a sneer. * A man's premiership collapses and it's a poignant send-off. A woman cries at her boss's leaving do and it's the front page, three angles, filed under 'again.' The Mail would say it's just giving readers the human moment. Funny how the human is always the woman, and the moment is always tears.
