London (Monitoring Desk): The United Kingdom is engulfed in a severe political crisis as pressure mounts on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to step down.
The alleged connections of the former British ambassador in the US with notorious criminal Jeffrey Epstein have shaken Starmer’s government. According to British media reports, calls for the Prime Minister’s resignation have intensified. Two Labour Party MPs have publicly demanded Starmer’s resignation.
In the wake of the controversy, Keir Starmer’s Director of Communications, Tim Allen, has resigned, and the Prime Minister’s Chief of Staff, Morgan McSweeney, has also stepped down from his position.
