Starmer promete não renunciar após derrotas do Partido Trabalhista nas eleições locais

O primeiro-ministro Keir Starmer disse na sexta-feira que permanecerá no cargo apesar das pesadas derrotas de seu Partido Trabalhista nas eleições locais do Reino Unido. Os resultados mostraram ganhos significativos para o partido Reform UK, de Nigel Farage, em toda a Inglaterra.

Os eleitores enviaram um recado a Starmer nas disputas de quinta-feira, que envolveram cerca de 5.000 assentos na Inglaterra, além de corridas na Escócia e no País de Gales. O Partido Trabalhista perdeu mais de 470 assentos em conselhos, enquanto o Reform UK garantiu mais de 700 vitórias, de acordo com a BBC. O partido populista assumiu o controle do Conselho do Condado de Essex, do Conselho do Condado de Suffolk e do distrito londrino de Havering.
