Sir Keir Starmer insisted today that he would carry on as Prime Minister despite Labour suffering disastrous local election losses. He acknowledged it had been a 'tough' night for Labour but said that 'days like this don't weaken my resolve to deliver the change that I promised'.
Nigel Farage's Reform UK made gains across the UK as hundreds of Labour councillors were voted out, heaping pressure on the Prime Minister. Sir Keir faces further heavy losses as vote counting continues in both English local elections and contests for the Scottish Parliament and Welsh Senedd.
