Politicians from across Yorkshire are calling for Sir Keir Starmer to resign, as Labour is facing decimation across the region and the country.

Hull’s Labour leader Daren Hale told the Prime Minister to “do the right thing and go” after the party lost seats in the Humber city, and Normanton and Hemsworth MP Jon Trickett reiterated that call and said Sir Keir “needs to go” in months.

The Prime Minister said he took “responsibility” for the local election results although pledged to carry on. Meanwhile, Nigel Farage said the night was a “historic shift in British politics” as Reform made gains across Yorkshire and the rest of the country. Reform won majorities in Barnsley, Wakefield and Calderdale, while Labour lost its majority in Leeds and council leader Tom Hunt was toppled in Sheffield.
