Starmer: Would Remain In Office Until Labour Elects New Leader & PM
In a dramatic turn of events, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced his resignation as leader of the Labour Party on Monday, June 22, 2026. Delivering an emotional address outside 10 Downing Street, Starmer acknowledged the mounting pressure from within his own party following a series of electoral setbacks and a successful by-election victory for rival Andy Burnham. Starmer, who led Labour to a landslide victory in 2024, will remain in office until a leadership contest is completed.
