UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing renewed pressure after reports suggested he could announce plans to step down. However, Business Secretary Peter Kyle said there was “nothing” to indicate the reports were true. Speaking to Sky News, Kyle said Starmer was spending the weekend reflecting on the “political realities, challenges and opportunities” facing him. He added that the prime minister remained focused on governing and putting the country first. The comments come as more Labour MPs call for Starmer to resign following recent political setbacks and growing speculation about his future as party leader.
