Starmer Rival Streeting Set to Resign and Challenge UK PM

Health Secretary Wes Streeting is preparing to resign from the UK government and challenge Prime Minister Keir Starmer for the leadership, according to his allies.

Streeting, who met Starmer briefly in Downing Street on Wednesday morning, is likely to quit the cabinet this week and attempt to trigger a leadership contest, they said, requesting anonymity to disclose private deliberations. The Times was first to report the development.
