🚨 Sir Keir Starmer is reportedly telling friends he plans to stand down as Prime Minister, with rivals already circling. This comes just days after he insisted he would serve a full five-year term.

An unnamed Cabinet member told MailOnline Starmer "understands the political reality" and wants to leave with dignity. Wes Streeting has already resigned as Health Secretary to join the race, while Andy Burnham is also a contender.

This news breaks as Labour faces fury over claims of £10.2bn in benefits handed to foreign nationals, according to the Daily Express. The party is in chaos.

Starmer promised a decade of national renewal. He is delivering a Labour Party in disarray.
