Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer speaks at a press conference, during his visit to the European Commission headquarters on October 2, 2024 in Brussels, Belgium. LONDON — British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is seeking to reset his government and recover from a shaky first 100 days in office beset by policy misfires, doom mongering and a "freebie" scandal. "A challenge for the prime minister lies in the fact No. Keir Starmer now needs to show he's got control," he added. Former Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt has denied the claims as "fictitious."
