Trump Predicts Starmer's Resignation
US President Donald Trump stated that UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer will resign, citing failures on immigration and energy policies. In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: 'He failed badly on two very important subjects - IMMIGRATION AND ENERGY (OPEN NORTH SEA OIL!). I wish him well!'
Context and Reactions
The statement, published on June 21, 2026, comes amid ongoing political pressure on Starmer's government. Trump's criticism focuses on the UK's immigration controls and energy strategy, particularly the decision to limit North Sea oil drilling.
No official response from Starmer's office has been reported yet. The prediction has sparked debate in UK political circles, with some analysts noting Trump's history of making bold claims about foreign leaders.
