Summary
Another UK prime minister bites the dust—Keir Starmer, barely two years in office, steps down despite holding a parliamentary majority and three years until the next election. His unpopularity, reflected in polls, local elections, and even within his own party, proved fatal. Starmer’s defensive leadership, questionable decisions, policy reversals, and failed attempts to appeal to centrist and right-wing voters left him isolated and unpopular. He’s now the sixth PM in ten years to fall, and his exit signals a deep crisis of leadership in British politics. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
