Labour expected to suffer electoral humiliation.
From scandal to crisis and back, failing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer keeps dragging himself through the motions of a pretend leadership – always involved in the most pointless summits and meetings.
But tomorrow (7), something may fundamentally change.
As British voters cast ballots in local elections, they could be sealing the end of Starmer’s premiership.

Associated Press reported:
“Starmer’s center-left Labour Party is expected to take a battering in elections for local authorities across England and for semiautonomous legislatures in Scotland and Wales.
With the prime minister’s popularity in the doldrums from a weak economy and repeated questions about his judgment, rival parties are framing Thursday’s votes as a referendum on Starmer and his 2-year-old government. ‘Vote Reform, Get Starmer Out’ is the campaign slogan of the hard-right party Reform UK.”

’Starmer will fight to the death’
Dan Hodges says Starmer will cling on to power for as long as he can and that Angela Rayner’s leadership hopes are fading and the time to move against Starmer has gone.

Britain’s next national election is set for 2029, but there are widespread concerns that the magnitude of Labour’s defeat tomorrow may throw the party into disarray.
“Less than two years after winning a landslide election victory, ‘Keir Starmer has become a vessel for people’s disappointment (and) disillusionment’, said Luke Tryl of pollster More in Common.
Starmer’s popularity has plunged after repeated missteps since he became prime minister in July 2024. His government has struggled to deliver promised economic growth, repair tattered public services and ease the cost of living.”
“They just have a visceral dislike of Keir Starmer”
