URGENT: Starmer's Leadership Crisis Deepens Amid Backfiring Damage Control

Breaking News: Starmer's Leadership Crisis Deepens Amid Backfiring Damage Control Sir Keir Starmer's leadership is facing a fresh crisis after a senior government minister, Wes Streeting, launched a scathing attack on Downing Street, accusing officials of a "toxic culture" and sexism. Streeting, the health secretary, also called for unnamed officials to be sacked, fueling speculation about a potential leadership challenge. Streeting's comments, made during a media round, come as allies of Starmer briefed that the prime minister would fight any challenge to his leadership, with Streeting's name mentioned as a potential challenger. This development is a significant blow to Starmer's efforts to shore up his leadership, which may have backfired. The crisis is rooted in the government's unpopularity, with poll after poll showing Sir Keir as the most unpopular prime minister in British history. Labour MPs are increasingly worried about their party's chances in the next election, with many citing their own grim experience of campaigning in their constituencies. The situation is now highly volatile, with Streeting's comments set to spark a heated debate within the Labour Party. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how Starmer will respond to the growing pressure on his leadership. This is a developing story.
