The Prime Minister's expected resignation date has been pushed back by 2 days, from 6 October 2026 to 8 October 2026, according to the latest Polymarket betting data. The shift suggests Starmer is now ~86% likely to still be PM on 8 October.
The delay comes as the Labour leader continues to face internal pressure, with the number of his own MPs publicly demanding he step down now standing at over 20. However, Starmer has vowed to remain in office until his planned departure date.
