UK: Keir Starmer is fighting for his political survival
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is fighting for his political survival.

Starmer started the week saying he would prove his doubters wrong, but that address and Wednesday's King Speech has done little to quell the mutiny that's been brewing within the Labour party.
