As Keir Starmer marks his first year as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, his leadership faces mounting challenges and growing dissatisfaction within the Labour Party. Despite securing a landslide victory in the 2024 general election with a majority of 156 seats, Starmer's government has struggled to fulfill key manifesto pledges and manage domestic crises effectively. Reports from multiple sources, including Sky News and The Economist, indicate that influential Labour MPs have warned Starmer he could be ousted within months if poor results occur in the May 2026 local elections in Wales and elsewhere. Labour ally and MP Maurice Glasman has suggested Starmer has six months to enact substantial changes to sustain his premiership. The first year has been marked by a series of U-turns, unpopular policies, and a decline in public approval ratings, with polls showing 61% of Britons disapprove of his performance. While some analyses acknowledge Labour's progress on certain targets, the overall assessment is one of political instability and uncertainty about whether Starmer will complete his term. The situation is compounded by the emergence of new political challenges, including competition from Nigel Farage and a new left-wing party, as well as internal party dissent. Media coverage describes Starmer's premiership as a difficult and tumultuous period characterized by fiscal turmoil, welfare disputes, and communication issues, leading to a perception of an 'invisible' prime minister struggling to maintain authority and control.
