Donald Trump has ignited controversy in the UK with a post claiming that Prime Minister Keir Starmer will resign from office on Monday, 22 June 2026.
In a statement posted on Truth Social, the former U.S. president said he “wishes Keir Starmer every success” — while simultaneously asserting that Starmer has “failed spectacularly” in two critical areas: immigration and energy policy. Trump specifically called for opening North Sea oil fields.
