UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under increasing pressure to resign following significant losses in local elections, with over 90 Labour MPs calling for his departure. The internal divisions within the Labour Party are highlighted by an upcoming meeting between Starmer and Health Secretary Wes Streeting, signaling potential factional conflicts. Despite the resignations of several junior ministers, Starmer remains defiant, even as the number of MPs calling for his resignation reaches the threshold needed to trigger a leadership contest.
Market sentiment reflects growing skepticism about Starmer's immediate resignation, with the "Starmer out by June 30, 2026?" market pricing dropping to 32.5% from 70% in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, the "Starmer out by December 31, 2026?" market sits at 63.5%, down from 82%. These shifts suggest a reassessment of the likelihood of a near-term leadership change, amid ongoing uncertainty and internal party dynamics.
