Starmer says he must ‘turn things around’ after defence resignations shake his leadership

Labour leader Keir Starmer admitted he must “turn things around”. The statement came after a series of resignations from the defence portfolio. The departures have been described as a blow to his leadership credibility. Critics argue the resignations expose internal party divisions. Starmer faces pressure to stabilise his team ahead of upcoming elections. The situation may affect public confidence in the party’s defence policy. Party officials are reportedly seeking to fill the vacant positions quickly. Observers will watch how Starmer reshapes his cabinet to restore authority.
