US President Donald Trump boldly declared: british prime minister Keir Starmer to resign, then slams ‘he failed miserably’.“Keir Starmer is to resign as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He did poorly in two very important subjects – immigration and energy (open up North Sea oil!). I wish him all the best! ” Trump said on “Truth Social.” Starmer is facing growing pressure within the Labor Party amid concerns his government has failed to translate a landslide victory at the 2024 election into tangible improvements for voters. While Labor secured a landslide majority, Starmer’s government has struggled with slow economic growth, persistent cost-of-living pressures and growing public dissatisfaction with the state of public services, including the NHS.The party’s disappointing performance in local elections earlier this year has further fueled concerns among Labor MPs, with critics arguing the government has run out of steam less than two years in office. Starmer has also faced a backlash over a series of policy reversals and internal divisions that have heightened perceptions of uncertainty over his governing strategy. Labour’s increasingly difficult electoral position has added to the pressure. The party’s left wing is losing support to the Greens in England and Wales, while voters worried about immigration and the economy are increasingly turning to Nigel Farage’s Reform Party. Against this backdrop, Andy Burnham’s return to parliament provides Labor members with a potential alternative leader, fueling speculation over Starmer’s future, although he insists he intends to stay in office and deal with any leadership challenge.
