In a sudden political jolt for Westminster, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced he will resign less than two years after coming to power.
Speaking in a statement delivered outside 10 Downing Street, Starmer said his party had asked “whether I am best placed to lead us into the next general election”.
He added: “I have heard the answer of my parliamentary party to that question, and I accept that answer with good grace.”
