UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer says he will resign and remain in place as prime minister until a new Labour leader has been selected.
Starmer’s departure will pave the way for a new British leader.

Starmer’s departure comes less than two years after he won a landslide election victory that promised to end Britain’s chaotic politics.
