'Keir Starmer will resign': Donald Trump makes bold claim, accuses UK PM of 'failing badly' on 2 subjects

US president Donald Trump made a bold claim stating that UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer will resign and then took a jab saying “he failed badly”.“Keir Starmer will resign as Prime Minister of The United Kingdom. He failed badly on two very important subjects- IMMIGRATION AND ENERGY (OPEN NORTH SEA OIL!). I wish him well!” said Trump on Truth Social. Starmer is facing growing pressure within the Labour Party amid concerns that his government has failed to convert its sweeping 2024 election victory into tangible improvements for voters. While Labour secured a landslide mandate, Starmer’s administration has struggled with sluggish economic growth, persistent cost-of-living pressures and mounting public dissatisfaction over the state of public services, including the NHS.The party’s disappointing performance in local elections earlier this year further intensified concerns among Labour MPs, with critics arguing that the government has lost momentum less than two years into its term. Starmer has also faced backlash over a series of policy reversals and internal disagreements that have fuelled perceptions of an uncertain governing strategy.Adding to the pressure is Labour’s increasingly difficult electoral position. The party is losing support on its left flank to the Green Party of England and Wales, while voters concerned about immigration and economic issues are increasingly turning to Reform UK led by Nigel Farage. Against this backdrop, the return of Andy Burnham to Parliament has provided Labour members with a potential alternative leader, intensifying speculation about Starmer’s future despite his insistence that he intends to remain in office and contest any leadership challenge.
