British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under intense pressure to announce a departure date after Labour suffered devastating losses in English local council elections, losing over 1,400 seats. The party also crashed out of significant votes in Welsh and Scottish parliament elections, marking a dramatic collapse in electoral support across the UK.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under mounting pressure from within his own Labour Party following significant electoral losses in local and regional elections across Great Britain. More than 20 Labour MPs have publicly demanded he provide a timetable for his resignation, with the BBC reporting the deadline was set for Friday night. Starmer has so far resisted calls to step down.
