Briefing

A large £979 bet has been placed on Polymarket, indicating a ~97% chance that Prime Minister Keir Starmer will leave Downing Street by June 24. The trade suggests the market sees a high likelihood of Starmer's resignation being announced in the coming weeks.

The bet, one of the largest on the platform, comes amid growing speculation over Starmer's political future. The Prime Minister has faced increasing pressure from within his own party, with some Labour MPs publicly calling for him to step down.
