India, June 22 -- United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer is expected to step down from the post on Monday, June 22, after facing increasing criticism from his own party and cabinet, and a challenge from his party colleague and rival Andy Burnham, who just won his way to the UK parliament with a thumping majority. This complete turnaround of Starmer's leadership comes just two years after he led the Labour Party to a landslide victory in the UK after 14 years of not being in power.

Whether Starmer will give into the pressure and resign or fight the challenge against Burnham is still uncertain, he is mulling his decision and options while spending the weekend at Chequers, UK PM's country mansion.
