Full list of Labour MPs backing Starmer ‘to deliver change the country needs’ as pressure mounts on PM
More than 100 Labor MPs have publicly declared their support for Sir Keir Starmer, arguing that “now is not the time for a leadership race” as the party deals with internal divisions.
The intervention comes as the Labor leader faces increasing pressure over his future, with scores of colleagues reportedly calling for his resignation.
A group of 111 Labor MPs have signed a letter calling for unity and a focus on regaining public trust after a difficult period for the party.
Their message underscores the need for collective effort “to deliver the change the country needs.”
The letter stated: “We experienced devastatingly difficult election results last week, which shows that we have a tough job ahead of us to regain the trust of voters.
“This needs to start today, with all of us working together to deliver the change this country needs. We must focus on this. This is not the time for a leadership contest.”
However, the show of solidarity was complicated by Labor MP Rupa Huq, who refused to sign the letter despite her name being on the list.
