UK Health Secretary Resigns — Sky News
British Health Secretary Wes Streeting has announced his resignation from Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government.
This was reported by Sky News.
In a letter to the prime minister, Streeting explained his decision by citing a loss of confidence in Starmer’s leadership, noting that under such circumstances, it would be dishonest to remain in office.
Among the reasons for his move, he also cited the results of the recent local elections, which the British media assessed as a serious blow to the government’s standing.
According to media reports, the resignation may be linked to Stritting’s intentions to run for the leadership of the Labour Party.
Earlier, Starmer spoke of growing tensions in relations with the U.S.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, during which they discussed increasing pressure on the aggressor. The leaders paid particular attention to the fight against the Russian shadow fleet and London’s contributions to the PURL program to strengthen the Ukrainian army.
