UK media: PM expected to announce intention to resign as early as Monday

Multiple British media outlets report that Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to unveil his intention to resign as early as Monday. Furthermore, the party's candidate Andy Burnham, who is willing to become prime minister, won a by-election for the lower house of parliament on Thursday.

The by-election result prompted Labour MPs, including some Cabinet ministers, to call on Starmer to step aside. However, the prime minister reiterated last week that he would stand if the party holds a leadership race. Asked about reports that Starmer plans to make public his intention to go, Business and Trade Secretary Peter Kyle stated in a TV program on Sunday that he has "nothing to believe that they are true."
