In the final session of Prime Minister's Questions before leaving office, Keir Starmer opened with a joke, announcing a television commitment to watch the World Cup semifinal between England and Argentina. Conservative MP Graham Stuart ironically compared him to Jude Bellingham, imagining him as the player capable of scoring the decisive goal before being "sent off" from politics with a red card from his own party's MPs. Starmer took the joke in stride, responding with irony that it was probably the first and last time he would be compared to Jude Bellingham. He then referenced the controversy that arose after US President Donald Trump publicly asked FIFA to cancel the red card shown to US national team defender Chris Richards during the quarter-final match against Morocco. Starmer stated he had received numerous messages asking him to intervene on England's red card as well, clarifying that he did not do so. He concluded by saying he did not care about the result, as long as England wins.
