crucial quote<\/h2>\n

In his speech, Starmer said: \u201cSix years ago, I inherited a Labour Party that was politically, financially and morally bankrupt. I was told, time and time again, that my party was finished. Ripping out the poison of antisemitism, restoring trust on the economy, defence, and national security. And becoming a party that, once again, stood proudly with, not against, our national flag.\u201d<\/p>\n

Who Could Replace Starmer As Prime Minister?<\/h2>\n

Starmer said he will ask his party to open nominations for the leadership role on July 9 and he expects the process to be completed by July 16. If a single nominee emerges, they could win the leadership uncontested, but if there are multiple candidates, then the party\u2019s members will get to have their say through a vote. Starmer suggested that he expects a new leader to be in place when the country\u2019s Parliament returns to session in September. The top emerging challenger to Starmer appears to be former Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham, who won a special election last week to become a Member of Parliament. The popular former mayor is considered to be slightly to the left of the centrist Starmer. <\/p>\n

chief Critics<\/h2>\n

Shortly after announcing his resignation, Starmer came under sharp criticism from members of various opposition parties. Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch tweeted: \u201cBritain is not ungovernable. Keir Starmer is a terrible Prime Minister. But the problem isn\u2019t just Starmer. Labour MPs only want higher taxes to hand out more benefits, as the Welfare Secretary has pointed out. These are Labour\u2019s choices and their values, regardless of who is running the party.\u201d Nigel Farage, the leader of the far-right Reform Party called for an early election on X, saying: \u201cReform demands an election, and we are ready to deliver radical change. If Labour thinks it can shove another professional politician into No 10, it has another thing coming.\u201d The leader of the left-wing Green Party, Zach Polanski also called out Starmer, saying: \u201cOur country needs a bold change of direction. Starmer lost the confidence of the country because of his abject failure to challenge the power and wealth of an establishment which has taken for themselves while leaving the vast majority in a cost of living crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former Conservative leader David Cameron is the last person to serve a full term as British Prime Minister. Cameron\u2019s first term lasted from May 2010 to May 2015, when he led a coalition government with support from the Liberal Democrat party. Cameron helped the Conservative Party sweep back to power in 2015 with a full majority, but he resigned a year later after the Brexit referendum passed, setting the stage for the U.K. to leave the European Union. Since then, Conservative Party leaders Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, Rishi Sunak and Labour\u2019s Starmer have served as prime ministers but none of them have completed a full term.<\/p>\n
