· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced his resignation as leader of the Labour Party on Monday, stepping down just two years after a landslide electoral victory. He will remain as interim prime minister until a new leader is elected, with expectations that former Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham will succeed him. Starmer's popularity has declined significantly since the 2024 election, and he faced increasing pressure to resign. He stated that nominations for the leadership contest will open on July 9, with a new leader expected to be in place by September 1. Starmer's tenure has been marked by challenges in economic growth and public services.
