Evening Edition: What Led To Britain's Keir Starmer's Resignation?
Description
Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced Monday that he will resign following a full on revolt inside his own Labour Party after devastating local election losses to Nigel Farage's 'Reform Party'. Starmer stepping down happens after the resignation of other government ministers and growing pressure from senior members of his own cabinet. Starmer said he would step down as prime minister and Labour leader, but is expected to remain in office until a successor is chosen.
FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Shannon Felton-Spence, the Director of Global Communications and Strategy at the Harvard Belfer Center, who was recently in London, says the political pressure on Starmer had been building to the point this resignation is not a surprise.
