Keir Starmer urged to change after election losses
Labour's significant election losses across Britain have put pressure on Sir Keir Starmer to make changes. Certain Labour MPs are pressing him to announce a date for his resignation, in the aftermath of a devastating defeat where the party surrendered control of over 25 English councils. Starmer, however, has insisted he won't quit as prime minister, despite the party ending its 27-year rule in Wales.
