UK PM Starmer ready to quit as per report, but source says he is still focused on the job

Prime Minister Keir Starmer is reportedly preparing to resign Monday, facing mounting pressure after a significant election win in 2024. His leadership has been weakened by scandals and policy shifts, leading to widespread unpopularity. Rival Andy Burnham's recent parliamentary victory positions him as a likely successor, with allies urging Starmer to step down voluntarily. Over 100 Labour lawmakers have publicly called for his exit.
