Briefing

A large £1.7k bet has been placed on Polymarket that Prime Minister Keir Starmer will leave Downing Street by June 22. The market currently implies around a ~79% chance that Starmer's resignation will be announced by that date.

The anonymous trader, known as 'Dearest-Agenda', opened the position betting on Starmer's exit. This comes amid growing pressure on the PM from within his own party, with several Labour MPs publicly calling for Starmer to step down in recent weeks.
