Starmer promet de ne pas démissionner après les pertes du Parti travailliste lors des élections locales

Le Premier ministre Keir Starmer a déclaré vendredi qu'il resterait en poste malgré les lourdes défaites de son Parti travailliste lors des élections locales au Royaume-Uni. Les résultats ont montré des gains significatifs pour le parti Reform UK de Nigel Farage à travers l'Angleterre.

Les électeurs ont adressé un désaveu à Starmer lors des scrutins de jeudi, qui concernaient environ 5 000 sièges en Angleterre ainsi que des élections en Écosse et au Pays de Galles. Le Parti travailliste a perdu plus de 470 sièges de conseillers, tandis que Reform UK a remporté plus de 700 victoires, selon la BBC. Le parti populiste a pris le contrôle du conseil du comté de l'Essex, du conseil du comté du Suffolk et du borough londonien de Havering.
