Public Declaration of Support
LONDON, May 12 (Reuters) - British Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy said on Tuesday that Keir Starmer had his full support, adding that no potential challenger appeared to have enough backing to mount a serious challenge to the Labour leader.
Absence of Serious Challengers
"It's been 24 hours now and nobody has come forward to put themselves forward in the processes that exist in the party," he told reporters outside Starmer's Downing Street office
Call for Alternative Candidates
"No one seems to have the names to stand up against Keir Starmer, and for those who are suggesting that he should stand down, they should say which candidate would be better."
