UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announces resignation
Published 3 days, 6 hours ago
Description
- Starmer said he was stepping down in the interests of party unity and the country after growing pressure from within the governing Labour Party.
- Labour's poor electoral performance and declining public support are widely cited as major factors behind the decision.
- Andy Burnham is considered the leading candidate to succeed him, and several prominent Labour figures have publicly backed him.
- If the transition proceeds as expected, the UK could have its seventh prime minister since the 2016 Brexit referendum.
