Starmer Steps Down After Two Years

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has resigned after just under two years in office, stepping down amid declining approval and mounting scandals. He’ll remain in charge until a successor is chosen by Labour in July, aiming for a smooth transition before Parliament’s September return. Andy Burnham, poised to enter Parliament this week, is expected to enter the leadership race. Starmer’s tenure, which ended a 14-year Conservative rule, was marked by controversial policy moves and rising political turbulence — including benefit cuts, defense spending debates, and a diplomatic appointment that sparked backlash — as Britain now faces its seventh PM in a decade since Brexit.
