Ian Dunt's UK: Keir Starmer resigns
After months of turmoil inside the Labour party, plummeting polls and the Reform Party making major gains in local elections, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer finally succumbed to pressure to resign, saying he has accepted that his party colleagues no longer feel he is the right person to lead the party. Nominations for a new leader will open on 9 July, but it's likely the only contender will be the former Mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham, who was re-elected to parliament on 18 June 2026.
