Starmer Steps Down: UK Labour Leader Keir Starmer to Resign Amid Pressure from Own Party

Keir Starmer has announced he will stand down as UK Prime Minister after days of intense pressure from his own Labour Party, with a new leader to be in place by the time parliament returns in September. The move comes amid mounting opposition within the party and follows a series of setbacks for Starmer's government. A leadership contest is expected to take place shortly, with a new prime minister taking office before parliament resumes its term.
