A £12,000 Polymarket bet has been placed on Prime Minister Keir Starmer leaving Downing Street by June 23, according to the betting platform. The trade implies an ~80% chance that Starmer's resignation will be announced by that date.
The large wager on Starmer's early departure comes amid growing discontent within the Labour Party. The Prime Minister has faced mounting pressure from backbench MPs to step down, with several publicly calling for him to resign in recent weeks.
