During prime minister's questions, Sir Keir Starmer mistakenly referred to Rishi Sunak as 'prime minister' three times, indicating his struggle to adjust to his new role.
Starmer's confusion came during a somber session following the Grenfell report. His repeated acknowledgment of Sunak as prime minister highlights a lingering transition from opposition to leadership.
Also, prior to the general election, Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, made the same error, mistakenly addressing Starmer as prime minister multiple times.
Starmer's error could signify his adjustment period in leadership following Labour's significant victory in the 5 July general election, where they secured 412 seats.
