このコンテンツについて
Keir Starmer has spent the past few days dodging headlines about a so-called coup within the Labour Party as speculation mounts over dissatisfaction in his ranks. Reports from The Independent and Sky News detail a “briefing war” between supporters and detractors, triggered by rumors Health Secretary Wes Streeting was plotting a leadership challenge. Streeting has denied these claims in the press and at public appearances, but talk of up to 50 Labour frontbenchers poised to resign if the November 26 Budget disappoints continues to swirl. Multiple MPs are reportedly uneasy about Labour’s falling poll numbers and the effectiveness of Starmer’s leadership. During Wednesday’s Prime Minister’s Questions, Starmer faced heated opposition criticism, with Tory MPs accusing him of presiding over a government on the verge of “civil war.” He was forced to publicly defend his team and the government’s stability, while trading familiar jabs on the state of the NHS and economic policy. The headlines have not been kind: The Daily Telegraph and The Times ran pieces focused on his alleged loss of authority, with the Mirror countering that “loyalists circle the PM” and that Starmer remains “undaunted by plots.”
Away from the drama, Starmer did notch a policy win. According to Pioneers Post, his government just launched the new Office for the Impact Economy, which will connect social investors, businesses, and philanthropists with government to drive billions in investment to underserved communities. Starmer made a brief statement celebrating this as “national renewal in action,” and columns in the Financial Times describe it as a major plank in Labour’s economic agenda. Social Impact sector leaders have cautiously welcomed the new office, emphasizing the need for it to be practical and collaborative rather than just another bureaucratic gesture.
In the international arena, Starmer is set to attend the G20 Summit in Johannesburg later this month, as reported by Wikipedia’s list of his prime ministerial trips. Recent visits to Brazil for the Earthshot Prize and the pre-COP30 climate conference earned him global headlines, particularly his remarks that the “consensus is gone” on climate change action. His bilateral with President Lula focused on UK-Brazil collaboration and climate goals.
On social media, Starmer’s official X and Instagram accounts promoted his PMQs appearances and the new Office for the Impact Economy launch, while memes and comment threads debated the coup rumors, with party insiders dismissing them as overblown. Notably, no credible source has confirmed any imminent leadership challenge, though Labour’s internal tensions are unmistakably a real factor shaping the prime minister’s current fortunes.
