U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer resigns
U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer resigned following poor May local elections and internal government turmoil. Labour Party must now select a new leader as the country faces economic challenges linked to the war in Iran. Starmer's government faced criticism over policy reversals and the controversial appointment of Peter Mandelson, who was later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
