Prime Minister Mark Carney is in contact with his close British counterpart, Keir Starmer, after repeated meetings focused on a shared vision for western countries, according to reporting from Canada. Carney is described as acknowledging a personal and political relationship with Starmer as he departs following their latest discussions. In parallel, Starmer publicly signals that he intends to resign as leader of the Labour Party after his political support weakens within the party. Starmer says he will step down once Labour members select a new leader, framing the move as tied to losing support among party membership rather than an immediate external event. The accounts describe Carney’s remarks as part of an ongoing international engagement between the two leaders, while Starmer’s announcement centers on internal party dynamics and the process for choosing a successor. Together, the reports place Carney’s meeting in the context of broader cooperation between western governments, while also highlighting the leadership uncertainty in Britain that Starmer’s announcement sets in motion.
