United Kingdom Health Secretary Wes Streeting could launch a leadership challenge against Prime Minister Keir Starmer as soon as next Friday, the day after local elections scheduled for May 7, The Telegraph reported on Friday.
Streeting has reportedly secured backing from more than 81 Labour Members of Parliament (MPs), the number required to trigger a contest, with allies urging him to act quickly after the vote. Meanwhile, a spokesperson said Streeting "supports the Prime Minister" and is "completely focused on his job."
Starmer is facing mounting pressure as a widening scandal over Peter Mandelson's ties to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein deepens after he was appointed as the UK's ambassador to the United States.
