Starmer reportedly left the UK on Saturday, with no public events scheduled until next week, according to The Guardian.
The same newspaper said that his family has been on the Portuguese island since last week. However, Starmer was left behind due to the death of his younger brother Nick on 26 December.
Diário de Notícias da Madeira indicated that the prime minister's visit is of a personal nature and, according to government sources, should not include official meetings with regional entities.
Even on vacation, the head of government remains active, having not transferred functions to his deputy prime minister, Angela Rayner, reported The Guardian.

Starmer will soon be turfed out of office and replaced by the people’s prime minister, Sir Nigel Farage, who will lead a government of national unity, sealing Britain’s borders and constructing a fortress wall around our great island nation.

Keir Starmer has already made sixteen international trips to fifteen countries and one British Overseas Territory during the first 5 months he has been in charge.
He doesn't want to spend any time in the UK because he is so hated.

Wonder who paid for his Madeira trip?
He can’t delegate anything important to Angela Rayner because she is an idiot.
The sooner these fools leave office the better.
