UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer set to resign after Labour Party turns on him
[NY Post] Get your ass out. Dead man walking
Finally! He will go down in history as more dangerous to the country than Arthur Neville Chamberlain.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is reportedly set to resign Monday, though sources close to him contend he’s focused on the job.

Starmer is said to be discussing his political future with his wife, Victoria,
What political future? He won’t even be wanted on quango boards once this is over.
before laying out a timetable for his departure from 10 Downing St. next week, according to The Observer.

The news comes after Starmer rival Andy Burnham won a seat in parliament in a special election in Greater Manchester.

A senior UK government figure told Reuters that Starmer is focused on his job — and claimed the prime minister isn’t going anywhere.

Dmitriev listed Starmer's political legacy after his resignation
[Regnum] British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's successor will inherit numerous unresolved issues, including the fueling of militarism and criminal migrants. This was stated by Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund and Special Presidential Representative for Investment and Economic Cooperation with Foreign Countries.

"When Starmer steps down, his legacy will be warmongering, energy failures, open borders, child sex gangs, immigration crime, and a refusal to acknowledge any of these mistakes," Dmitriev wrote on social media.

According to the Telegraph, Starmer's allies are convinced he plans to resign very soon. The British prime minister is expected to tender his resignation on June 22. The number of MPs calling for Starmer to step down has exceeded 100.

Meanwhile, back in May, Starmer insisted he had no plans to leave his post. Four members of the British government resigned, demanding Starmer's departure.

This is what he presided over:


…implement harsh punishments like stoning women to death for crimes like adultly

What the heck is the UK doing??? They are literally telling you there are working on a political takeover and to pass Sharia Law

We need to mass deport Islam from America before this happens to us too

#1  Yea, it's Starmer that's a problem!

#2  Great news if it actually happens.

#3  Honestly think he did more damage than Chamberlain in his short reign.

#4  It remains to be seen it the Pom's survive, with or without Starmer. If anyone needed a foretelling of the effects of immigration, all they must do is take an honest look at Britain.

I remain thankful that The Orange Man and Tom Homan have sent the amigos packing.

#10  I heard that he isn't resigning, but announcing a potential schedule to resign, and a replacement is hand-picked.

Changing the mascot won't change anything.

You know, like a shithole country.

Government Corruption
Penthouse to outhouse: ‘Poor' Ilhan Omar now claims erstwhile-millionaire hubby made as little as $200 last year
[NY Post] Scandal-scarred Rep. Ilhan Omar and her hubby have gone from the penthouse to the poorhouse.

The husband of the Minnesota "Squad" firebrand — who once valued his venture capital and wine empire at up to $30 million — now claims to be pocketing as little as $200 a year.

The embattled socialist claimed hubby Tim Mynett made no income last year from his main business, Rose Lake Capital, according to her newly released 2025 financial disclosure report.

The only money Mynett — who has nearly two decades of experience in DC — earned last year is a meager $200 to $1,000 from his defunct California-based wine business eStCru, which sold bottles such as "The Devil’s Lie" before going belly up in April.

Omar claimed the total value of the couple’s assets was between $20,000 and $125,000 for 2025, and their credit card and student-loan debt hovered between $30,000 and $100,000 — putting their net worth at negative-$80,000-$95,000, according to the report.

The head-scratching financial disclosure comes after the couple in 2024 reported sudden ballooning wealth — from close to nothing to between $5 million and $30 million — sparking intense public scrutiny.

That spurred a Congressional investigation into Omar’s finances, just as a massive social services fraud scheme involving the Somali community in her district was blowing up.

In response, Somalia-born Omar filed an amended 2024 financial disclosure in March, listing the value of Mynett’s ownership stakes in both businesses at zero. She chalked up the "discrepancy" on an accounting error.

Despite the businesses reportedly being worth nothing, Rose Lake Capital still generated income between $100,000 and $1 million and the wine business between $2,500 and $5,000 that year, according to the amended disclosure.

"Voters see right through the corrupt lies of Ilhan Omar," Republican National Committee spokeswoman Delanie Bomar told The Post. "Omar has spent her entire career covering up Democrat-enabled fraud that cost taxpayers billions, so it’s no surprise that she would do the same for her husband."

Mynett, 44, launched Rose Lake Capital in 2022 with his longtime business partner, Will Hailer, another Democratic operative.
