Starmer steps down as Labour leader amid party pressure but will stay PM until successor is chosen.

Pressure is mounting on UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer after an unprecedented revolt inside Labour. A bruising local-election defeat has accelerated the fight over who could succeed him.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer visited the London site where two Jewish men were stabbed; protesters shouted "Traitor" and urged a tougher crackdown on antisemitic violence.

Police identify the suspect as a 45-year-old British citizen born in Somalia; two victims are stable as residents demand real protection and action against rising antisemitism.
