UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer faced calls to resign Friday after Labour finished third in a by-election in Gorton and Denton, losing to the Green Party and Nigel Farage's Reform UK in what senior party figures described as a worst-case scenario. Internal debate over whether to pursue progressive voters or focus on reclaiming Reform-bound ex-Labour supporters has intensified, though Starmer and his allies indicated they would maintain their current strategy rather than undertake a major course correction.
