Starmer Resigns as Labour Leader

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has stunned the nation by resigning as Labour leader after just under two years in office — making him the sixth PM in a decade to step down early. Despite a major electoral win in 2024, mounting internal pressure, declining public support, and criticism over policy handling led to his exit. In a defiant address, Starmer touted economic growth, wage increases, and defense spending as key achievements. Now, Labour is preparing for a leadership race set to begin July 9th, with a potential swift resolution if Andy Burnham is the sole nominee. The coming weeks will shape Britain’s political future.
