Who is Keir Starmer? 61-year-old Former Lawyer Promises To Boost UK's Falling Economy | UK Elections

Once on the brink of resignation after a crushing defeat in the 2021 local elections, Britain’s Labour Party leader Keir Starmer is now poised to win the July 4 election, potentially ending 14 years of Conservative-led government and ousting Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Opinion polls show the 61-year-old former lawyer with a lead of around 20 points. He has mended many rifts within his party by addressing Conservative infighting, enforcing discipline within Labour, steering the party towards the political center, and running a steady, if unremarkable, campaign for the upcoming election.
